When you cast "Anthropomorphic Animal" on an animal(Large Dire Wolf) it counts as a humaniod, would that creature be affected by "Enlarge Person"?

Scarab Sages

No. The animal's size, type, and ability scores do not change. It is still the animal type, and not a valid target for enlarge person.

Animal Growth still works though.


enlarge person affects humaniods and A.Animal gives a normal the humaniod body style

Enlarge Person cares about humanoid type, not humanoid form. When a spell (or any other effect) says it targets humanoids, it always means humanoid type.

Not all humanoid type creatures have a humanoid form, and not all humanoid form creatures have the humanoid creature type.

Merfolk have the humanoid type despite not having a humanoid body (they do have 2 arms and a head, but have no legs). Ifrits have a humanoid body form, but not the humanoid creature type. They have to have a special exception in their Efreeti Magic alternate racial ability to allow them to be affected by Enlarge Person.
