In a room
The sign reads
"Welcome all new travellers.
To continue you must go through a series of doors.
After going through you will pick a costume. You will then become a half- human and half that creature.
After a week(100 mins a hour,20 hrs a day,10 days a week) has passed you may morph and get another costume. To start of with you will only be able to become 40% human to 60% human.
If you put on a costume you will then become that creature, be teleported to it's home town and have to wait a week before being able to morph.
After 50 costumes you may change into one of your other costumes and become 30% to 70% human. When changing costumes you must wait at least an hour before you can change costumes again.
100 different species/gender costumes allows you to gender-morph and become 20% to 80% human
200 different species costumes allows you to combine costumes and become 10% to 90% human
400 different species costumes allows you to return to your world with no more morphing
And 800 different species costumes makes a polymorph and allows you to morph outside of this world.
Also if you have a costume like a centaur then the human part will always be human and is counted towards the human percentage.
Any gender/species transformation magic of yours can only change your gender(if you have at least 100 costumes) and the animal part to a different animal.
When you change into a different costume (that you already have) you may teleport to that species home town but you will have the week penalty where you have no costume changes.
If you die while wearing a costume you will be reborn at the local inn (or appropriate location ). If you have more then 100 costumes you will lose the costume you had when you died and go to an appropriate place for your next costume.
If you fail to make it out in 100 years(100 weeks in a year) one of your possible forms will be chosen and you will be permanently stuck in that form(apart from magic) until you die. Also there will be no possibility of going back to your world.
Also, one final note: should you take a female form and become pregnant, you won't be able to change your gender until the child is born, though the other aspects of your form may change (the child will change to match.) That is all, and good luck!
You realise that you have to do what the sign said to do and go through the doors and grab a costume.
Alternatively you could use the key system to determine the room

Triceratops
You find yourself in a dimly lit chamber, your heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and trepidation. The air is thick with the scent of old fabric and mystery. Your eyes, adjusting to the gloom, begin to discern shapes in the shadows - five distinct forms, each more fantastical than the last.
As you approach, you realize these are no ordinary costumes. Each one represents an anthropomorphic land animal, crafted with exquisite detail and an almost magical quality. Your fingers brush against fur, scales, and leather, sending shivers down your spine.
A pang of disappointment strikes you as you notice all the costumes are decidedly feminine in form. Yet, your curiosity burns brighter than your reservations. Among the menagerie of beauteous beasts, one catches your eye - a majestic triceratops, its frill adorned with intricate patterns that seem to shimmer in the low light.
You reach out, your hand trembling slightly as it makes contact with the costume. The material is unlike anything you've ever felt before - cool to the touch, yet somehow alive with energy. It beckons to you, an irresistible siren call that drowns out all rational thought.
With a deep breath, you begin to don the costume. As you slip into it, the world around you begins to blur and shift. Colors become more vivid, scents more pungent. You feel a tingling sensation spreading from your core to the tips of your fingers and toes.
The transformation begins slowly at first, like the gentle lapping of waves against a shore. Your skin prickles and stretches, taking on a new texture. What once was soft human flesh now becomes tough and leathery, yet surprisingly supple. The hue of your skin shifts, deepening into a rich, earthy tone reminiscent of sun-baked clay.
Your bones creak and groan, rearranging themselves in a symphony of change. Your spine elongates, vertebrae popping into new configurations. You feel yourself growing taller, broader, more imposing. Your center of gravity shifts as your posture changes, adapting to support your new form.
A pressure builds at the base of your skull, intensifying until it feels like your head might split open. Then, with a sound like the unfurling of ancient sails, your frill emerges. It spreads like a regal crown, adorned with patterns that pulse with an inner light. Three horns sprout from your forehead and snout, their ivory gleam a stark contrast to your earthen hide.
Your face reshapes itself, your nose and mouth elongating into a beak-like structure. Your teeth change, becoming more numerous and specialized for grinding tough plant matter. Your tongue, now longer and more flexible, flicks out to taste the air, bringing with it a flood of new sensations.
As the transformation races down your torso, you feel your chest expanding, ribs reshaping to support your new bulk. Your heart grows larger, beating with the strength needed to pump blood through your massive form. Lungs expand, granting you the capacity to bellow with earth-shaking force.
Your arms, once slender and dexterous, become thick and powerful. Fingers fuse and reshape into three-toed hands, each digit tipped with a blunt claw. These new appendages feel strange yet natural, as if you've always possessed them.
A peculiar sensation draws your attention to your lower back. With a rush of vertigo, you feel your tailbone extending, growing longer and more substantial by the second. Muscle and sinew weave around the new vertebrae, forming a tail that sways with a life of its own, helping to balance your newfound bulk.
Your legs undergo a dramatic change. They thicken and lengthen, bones shifting to support your new form while maintaining your bipedal stance. Your feet expand, becoming broad and sturdy, each toe ending in a blunt claw that provides excellent traction. Despite your increased bulk, you find yourself perfectly balanced on two legs, your tail providing additional stability.
Throughout this metamorphosis, you're acutely aware of another change taking place - one that transcends the physical. Your mind expands, filled with new instincts and knowledge. You understand the ways of the herd, the language of the earth beneath your feet. Memories of ancient grasslands and primordial forests flutter at the edges of your consciousness.
As the final waves of transformation wash over you, you become aware of your new femininity. It's not just in the shape of your body, but in the very essence of your being. You feel connected to the cycle of life in a way you never have before, attuned to the rhythms of the natural world.
The room around you seems smaller now, your new form towering over the other costumes. You turn your head, your frill brushing against the wall, and catch a glimpse of yourself in a tarnished mirror. The creature that stares back at you is both familiar and foreign - a magnificent female triceratops, standing proud and tall.
As tyou look over the new body, the very fabric of reality seems to ripple. The dimly lit chamber begins to fade, its walls becoming translucent, then transparent. The other costumes, the dusty floor, the tarnished mirror - all dissolve like mist in the morning sun.
Your new eyes, large and expressive, blink in wonder as a new world materializes around you. Gone is the confined space of the mysterious room. Instead, you find yourself standing in a vast, open landscape. Lush grasslands stretch as far as the eye can see, punctuated by clusters of ancient trees and distant, mist-shrouded mountains.
You take a tentative step forward, your clawed foot sinking slightly into the soft earth. The movement feels natural, as if you've always walked this way. Your tail swishes behind you, counterbalancing your impressive bulk with surprising grace.
A sound escapes your throat - not quite a roar, not quite a bellow, but something in between. It resonates across the landscape, vibrating in your chest and frill. You feel the power in that voice, the ability to communicate across vast distances or to strike fear into the heart of any predator foolish enough to threaten you.
With a deep, rumbling breath, you turn your gaze to the horizon. This new world beckons, promising experiences beyond your wildest dreams. You take your first steps towards that future, each footfall resonating with the weight of ages past and the promise of what's to come.
