Beast Transformation

Talent:Claw Shape
Rank: 12 Learn: 15

With this knack, the adept may fully transform into any beast of approximately the same size as the adept. This requires a test using the Claw Shape Rank plus the adept's Charisma step against the animal's Spell Defense, with a Good Sucess being the minimum for a proper transformation. Adepts attempting this should be warned that a flawed transformation could be dangerous. Also, this talent has no effect on anything worn or carried by the adept, but threads are still active and the adept retains normal conscious and may attempt use of any reasonable talents or skills, but the animals instincts are felt and excessive use of this knack could result in the adept's mind being influenced by the new form to a large degree, even in forgetting about the adept's true form or consciousness. Adjust the adept's atributes, damage ratings, and defenses to appropriate levels for the new form Lastly, this transformation has no duration. The adept must use the talent again to return to her normal form. Use of this knack costs 8 points of Strain, but the adept may make Recovery tests using the new form.
