A self-enchantment which allows the caster to transmogrify his physical form to melt through unenchanted, forged metal. With the basic spell, only the caster's (naked) body is affected.
Speed of penetration is inversely proportional to the Specific Gravity of the metal and is expressed as a percentage of Walk rate. For steel, iron, and brass this rate is about 25%; for lead 18%; and for gold 10%. Being in the middle of a solid metal object (e.g., an iron door) when the spell wears off is fatal. Entities undergoing Vulen's Passage are often unnerved by the experience.
ML46+: Enchantment can be extended to include wholly metallic (elemental), unenchanted objects within Aura inches of the caster's skin.
ML61+: Enchantment can be extended on up to SI living beings in skin contact with the caster.
ML81+: Enchantment can be laid on a person other than the caster.
