I have seen this bug in relation to Ogres and Trolls but I have yet to see
this same effect occur with Gnomish Enchanters or other smaller races
using a guise of the deceiver. That's not to say it's possible - just
that I haven't seen it.
The next time I'm in Ak'anon (I'm in Steamfont right now), I'll go visit
the king and wait until he starts to cast spells to see if his illusion
wears off. I should be online within the next few days and I'll report
then
