Stats - Shifter

Hit Die: d8
Proficiencies: No additional proficiencies are gained
Skill Points: 4 + Int Modifier


Requirements

To qualify as a shifter, a character must fulfill all of the following criteria:
Feats: Alertness
Spellcasting: level 3 or higher
Other: must have a natural, alternate form (like Druid wildshape)
Tip:Only druids can become shifters in Neverwinter Nights


Background

Shifters have no form to call their own. Instead, they clothe themselves in whatever shape is most expedient at the time. Shifters actually come closer to their true self through transformation. Out of necessity, a Shifter's sense of self is based not on outward form, but on soul, which is the only constant about them. It is the inner strength of that soul which enables them to take on any shape and remain themselves within.

Abilities

Greater Wildshape I (Level 1): Change into a red, green, black, white or blue wyrmling
Greater Wildshape II (Level 3): Change into a minotaur, a harpy or a gargoyle
Greater Wildshape III (Level 5): Change into a manticore, a basilisk or a drider
Humanoid Shape (Level 7): Change into a variety of humanoid forms
Greater Wildshape IV (Level 10): Change into a medusa, huge dire tiger, or a mindflayer


Several of these forms grant the shifter the ability to use the form's innate powers. For example, a shifter changing into a white wyrmling can breath a cone of cold as often as they want. These powers are located on the "spell" radial menu. Some of these powers can be used an infinite number of times per day, others are restricted.
