I've got a problems with that one:
1. if troll is hungry, and will be changed in mouse, then he'll eat as
much, as he can. Will be not hungry anymore, when he'll be backj to his
troll form?
2. What happens with clothes and gear?
3. Dragon's and human form. Does dragons use transorm, to be in human
form, or this is their power?
TIA

1. According to the description of Shapechange on page 148 in MitS, he won't
be hungry when he's back in troll form. This is because the spell actually
changes the body, and it's physical abilities (body, quickness, strength)
and other things like cyberware. This is just my interpretation of the
spell. A in game problem with this is the T# for changing a troll into a
mouse. The average troll has a body of 8, 9 if he's tough. A mouse would
have a max body of 1. That would mean a T# of 9, with a threshold of 12 :)
Good Luck without any muchkin and tweaking :D

2. From Shapechange, page 148 in MitS: "The Shapechange spell does not
transform clothing or equipment, which may be ripped or destroyed during the
change."

3. I can't find my copy of DotSW, but I think it's a power. But I'm not
really sure.
