Shapeshifter

Shapeshifters are naturals at blending in. They can assume the forms, traits and moves of creatures they have studied.

Basic Rules

Your basic attacks do d6 damage.

Your Bestial forms list can have as many entries as you have levels and Learned (minimum 1).

Shapeshifting

When you study an animal for an hour or so, add it to your Bestial Forms list.

When you assume a Bestial Form, roll for Learned. On a 10+ choose three of the following effects. On a 7-9, choose two of the following effects. On a 6 or lower, choose 1 of the following effects.

Act immediately.
Increase damage die by one step (d6->d8->d10).
Reduce damage taken by one.
Gain +1 to the beast's strongest attribute

You keep your attributes and gain any abilities or actions the thing you shapeshifted into had. Characters outside the party will be unable to tell a shapeshifted Bestial Form from the real thing.
