I just had the dream where I turn into Slayer. Now I have the ability to turn into Slayer at will. Does it do any harmful effects on my character and does this ability vanish when I get my soul back?

Your party reputation will decrease by two each time you use it and you have to turn back into human form after a while or you die. Also when you get your soul back its the end of the game so it makes no difference

So is turning into Slayer really worth it? I'm a barbarian and i just use beserker rage to get through a tough battle, and it works great.

The slayer is absolutely amazing, 25 strength, immune to all magic i think, stick him in the middle of a battle and there is no way u will lose. Also a good way of decreasing rep instead of killing the beggers when you hit 20.

Yes the slayer is the nastyman, if we were going to be picky your not actually the slayer your the ravanger another of Bhalls avatars. The slayer was this human male avatar who used to bleed black pus out of the cracks in his face while carrying bone daggers that would wither anything they touched, not the kind of guy to head to the pub with. Im not sure if im 100% right but I got the main details.

If your a good person, I would say I wouldn't become the slayer for any reason. I played a Paladin, and my whole goal was to NEVER change into the Slayer voluntarily.
If you are a evil player, Its a great way to keep the REP managable, plus win some hard battles. Neutral, you go either way.

If you turn into the slayer too many times, does anything special happens? The Imoen in the dream says that "every time you use The hidden power, you come closer to the darkness inside." what does that mean?

It means you lose 2 rep.

Actually, there are critters that can tear the Slayer a new one. Take Illithids. Apparently the Slayer can have his brain sucked out as well, but it likely tastes bad, if that makes you feel better.

That's an interesting Slayer dual that was described. I wonder if you used pause multiple times, or if you just let them go at it.

Unfortunately...taking slayer form also damages your PC. If you remain in Slayer form for too long, you will die. Beware...

Now where did I leave that doughnut?!
