Shifter Traits

Your shifter character has an assortment of inborn abilities due to the trains of lycanthropic blood in his lineage.

  • Ability Score Increase: Your Strength score increases by 2, and your Wisdom score increases by 1.
  • Age: Shifters live half-again as long as most humans, reaching some 120 years or so in age. They mature at the same age as humans, though, reaching adulthood before two decades, but their aging slows down as adults. A shifter generally looks only about half as old as he is, to human standards.
  • Alignment: Shifters are headstrong and independent, with a trace of wildness to their blood. As such, they tend toward chaotic alignments.
  • Size: Shifters are largely indistinguishable from humans, ranging between 5 and 6 feet tall. Your size is Medium.
  • Speed: Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
  • Lowlight Vision: Thanks to your wolfblood, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.
  • Natural Hunter: You have proficiency in the Survival skill.
  • Predator's Senses: You have a sixth sense for danger, and gain advantage on Wisdom saves and Perception checks to avoid being surprised by danger.
  • Visage of the Wolf: As a bonus action, you may invoke a physical shift in your body, assuming lupine physical traits - a light dusting of fur, growing claws, and shifting of facial features. You develop natural weapons that inflict 1d6 slashing damage and are considered magical. You may also use a bonus action to spend one of your Hit Dice at any time, manifesting as a natural regeneration. This shift lasts for up to ten minutes, can be ended as a free action, and you must take a short rest before you can do so again.
  • Languages: You can speak, read, and write Common and Elvish. Long generations of living closely beside the elves of the Delannwood have made the learning of the Elvish language a natural byproduct, and many shifters speak far better Elvish than they do Common.
  • Subrace: Shifter legends claim that there are also tribes of shifters far to the south, beyond the Ilandor Mountains, whose blood is blessed by werecat lineage as theirs is by wolves.
