While in this form, you can squeeze through any gap that is not water-tight.

While transformed, you can make an unarmed attack using Body as your attack roll. The target may contest by dodging or Defending. This attack deals +2 damage.

Nina, the Siberian cat, boasts a thick, luxurious coat of tan and white fur, with striking green eyes that shimmer with intelligence. Her movements are fluid and stealthy, allowing her to blend seamlessly into the shadows as she communicates with Soren, often perched nearby with an air of quiet confidence.
Soren found this cat when she was just a kitten at one of his stake-outs into a suspected supernatural old money family in Bavaria, but decided to keep it. As she grew up, she began to develop human speech at a very fast pace, this was quite clearly a supernatural cat, Soren knew he couldn't just hand her over to the feds. As a result, he raised her as his own; she had acquired human-level intelligence astoundingly quickly and began to develop her own personality. She also has very nimble and dexterious paws, allowing her manual dexterity.
As Nina grew older she informed Soren of her abilities, allowing him to be able to summon her at will, forming a supernatural pact with him. He now takes her with him on his missions, using her innate stealth and observation abilities to assist him.
Nina has a witty and observant personality, often displaying a dry sense of humour that catches Soren off guard. She is fiercely independent and prefers to watch the world from a distance, but when Soren is in danger, she becomes fiercely protective, ready to lend her unique abilities to assist him in any way she can.

The werewolf unleashes their inner beast, transforming into an imposing hybrid of human and wolf. Their head reforms into that of a wolf, robbing them of speech but bestowing a maw of deadly fangs.
