This script is in the HumanioidRootPart of the monster

function onTouched(hit)
	if not hit or not hit.Parent then return end
	local human = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if human and human:IsA("Humanoid") then
	local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	local appearance = game.Players:GetCharacterAppearanceInfoAsync(player.UserId)
		game.Workspace.DummyPlayer:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):ApplyDescription(game.Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(appearance))
	end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

Any help is appreciated ^^

Try this instead:

function onTouched(hit)
	if not hit or not hit.Parent then return end
	local human = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if human and human:IsA("Humanoid") then
	local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	local appearance = game.Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(player.UserId)
        human:ApplyDescription(appearance)
	end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

Also, this won’t work if it’s in a local script.

Good luck!

Also add a debounce to make sure it doesnt keep triggering.
