This article contains the various traits available to animal shapechange, including Shapechange Spells, Forms and so forth.

In Sagatafl, shapechanging into an animal isn't about combat power, where bigger and stronger is better but rather about abilities, including movement abilities and being able to function in enviroments where Humans either can't go, or can only visit with difficulty and risk.

Advice

Include any and all pertinent advice here. The goal is to increase the chance of each player having fun, by giving advice helping the player to decide whether to buy the ability or not (if the article is about one or more abilities) or use the option (if the article is about something that characters can choose to do), and later on how to make use of the ability (e.g. to avoid any pitfalls that aren't extremely obvious).

Please note

Clarify, elaborate, try to predict and answer questions that are somewhat likely to be asked during character creation or during play.

Mini-FAQ

Put in sub-sections (three ='s) each containing multiple Q&As, and insert a blank line between each individual Q&A.

World impact

The Ärth setting
