History PlayingWith / ForcedTransformation

** Rowena, tired of the arrogant and decadent conduct of the humans that live on Earth, a.k.a. the realm adjacent to her swamp, one day decides to pay the planet a visit and transforms the entire human population into humble forest critters like mice, squirrels, canaries and gophers, ultimately resulting in the extinction of mankind.

* '''Conversed''': ???

'''Basic Trope''': A character is physically transformed into something else against their will.

** Instead of a harmless creature, Rowena transforms Alice into something that's quite useful, like [[NobleWolf a wolf]], [[NobleBirdOfPrey an eagle]], [[BoxingKangaroo a kangaroo]] or even [[BearsAreBadNews a frikkin bear!]] Other possibilities are powerful creatures (like a dragon, [[KrakenAndLeviathan a kranken]], [[ThePhoenix a phoenix]] or just [[{{Kaiju}} some kind of massive & unstoppable monster]]) in order to help her fighting [[TheArchmage a powerful adversary]].

'''Basic Trope''': A character is transformed into a form far less useful than his/her default one.

** Rowena turns Alice into a [[FunnyAnimal anthropomorphic]] [[BeastMan cat]], which is annoying but does not render her useless, but also makes her popular to the [[UsefulNotes/FurryFandom Furry Fandom]].

* '''Straight''': During her encounter with Rowena the evil witch, Alice is transformed into a little rabbit by one of her spells.

** Rowena gives Alice [[LittleBitBeastly rabbit ears and a little fluffy tail]], which are annoying but does not render her useless.
** Rowena turns Alice into a [[FunnyAnimal anthropomorphic]] [[BeastMan rabbit]], which is annoying but does not render her useless, but also makes her popular to the [[UsefulNotes/FurryFandom Furry Fandom]].

** [[KarmicTrickster Rowena]] transformed Alice into a humble rabbit in order to give a lesson. (Maybe she was being [[InsufferableGenius an arrogant jerk]] or [[KickTheDog cruel to the little fellas]]) She expects that she might learn something after walking a mile on the paws of a little beast.
** Alice is under a timed spell, having been turned into a rabbit by Rowena to help her infiltrate the enemy camp. Nobody will notice a rabbit in the forest, and once she's past the guards, the spell will wear off and she'll turn back into a human.

* '''Zig Zagged''': The hex casted on Alice keeps transforming her back and forth between rabbit and human at totally random intervals. Needless to say, this turns into an extremely annoying (and even dangerous) situation because she ends up transforming into a little critter when she is about to deliver a finishing upon a dangerous opponent, and her lack of [[MagicPants "magical clothes"]] means whenever she changes backs into human, she has to [[NakedPeopleTrappedOutside sneak around while in the buff]], looking for something to cover herself, in order to save her modesty.

** Alice turns out to be a [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshifter]], who after being turned into a rabbit, reverts back to her normal form and gives Rowena a major thrashing.

* '''Played For Laughs''': Bob arrives too late after Alice's lost duel with Rowena, and when he finds [[EmptyPilesOfClothing her abandoned clothes and gear]] on the floor he [[ComicallyMissingThePoint "accurately" deducts]] that she [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl has decided to go for a casual naked stroll through the forest]], and now he wants to find her before she gets hurt. (And because [[CovertPervert he secretly wants some eye-candy]]) Never mind the fact that a really annoyed bunny-Alice is right beside him, trying and failing to get his attention!
* '''Played For Drama''': Alice's forceful transformation couldn't have arrived at a worst time, because it was on her wedding day. Now her absence has been attributed to [[RunawayBride last-second-regret]], with the groom heartbroken and devastated by it. She, as a rabbit, tries to explain him what happened, but neither he nor anyone can understand her noises and treat her as just an annoying pest. And the worst part is that [[TheLittleShopThatWasntThereYesterday Rowena seems to have just vanished from the face of Earth]], and without a way to communicate herself with humans, there's a great chance that Alice might remain stuck as a little critter for the rest of her life!
* '''Deconstructed''': There are some severe gulfs in capabilities between these forms that go beyond the physical... Alice's transformation into a bunny also resulted in her ending up with the intelligence and instincts of one, as well, so while she remembers what her party set out to do, she's lost the ability to focus on it for very long. Additionally, there's a small matter of her now being about 110 pounds lighter, and all that mass had to go ''some''where...
