Toggle Forms
I think forms are a great place to try out buffs that can be toggled on and off without having to worry about creating additional costs to balance 100% uptime.
As far as the details go, what I have in my head would play out like this:
It costs X MP and 1 turn to toggle into a form. There is no sustained mana cost.
It costs 0 MP and 1 turn to toggle back into your default self.
It costs X MP and 1 turn to change from one form to another (i.e., it doesn't take two turns to go from Blade Hands to Statue Form).
Hydra Form retains its short duration because it's a duration-gimmick form anyway.
I don't know what to do about Beastly Appendage.
Problems I see with toggling forms:
Stacking Wizardry & swapping
Taking off armour to cast Blade Hands or Necromutation
Using !Brilliance to slip into forms one could not normally cast
