* Disguise Self disables effects that require the [[Brand of the Absolute]] to trigger, such as [[Gloves of Power]].
* As of Patch 5, Hotfix 17, it is possible to give the caster racial equipment bonuses for longer than intended by using the {{SmRarityItem|Mask of the Shapeshifter}}, taking the mask off, and long resting without removing the disguise. On waking up, the disguise is gone, but the racial bonuses on the equipment still affect the character. That only works for racial equipment bonuses, not racial dialogue options.
