You unilaterally decide your foe needs a slick new look and pull them into a whirlwind costume montage.
And... magnifique!
Man, stick a little Mad Hatter top hat on anyone and suddenly they think they've got crazy magical powers. News flash, villains: crazy and crazy powers have nothing to do with each other.
Unfortunately, in this case, it appears to be a magical top hat and, sadly, not the kind that animates friendly snowmen.

Miss messages:
- The imp pulls a rabbit out of his hat, but it seems to be more of the "eating grass" kind of rabbit than the "eating knights" kind of rabbit.
- He teleports five or six times in a row, cackling "you can only walk to Zyx backwards, step by step! Step by step!" Which is a little weird weird, but mostly just leaves the area smoky.
- The imp shows you dimensions beyond the understanding of heroes, but you don't turn into a lizard person or anything, it's just really confusing.

How to Encounter
- Using Disguise Foe skill on foes whose name starts with I or V.
Notes
- Foes's stats and drops will be replaced by those of the disguised form.
- Using ionic tonic doesn't change the resulting disguise, and the resulting foe keeps the ionic in the name as well as the electrical weakness.
- Foes that can't be replicated also can't be disguised with the exception of:
- Scaling foes;
- Foes from The streets of Somerset;
- footpath footpad and ghost of X;
