(This Effect is obviously Alien when used. Your transition from one form to the next is obvious to all observers. While transformed, you are obviously unusual, unnatural, or alien, and the average person will take a special interest in you. )

The beastmaster shouts, and their human voice cracks into a deep, bestial howl. Their body tightens with muscle, clothes melting into a thick pelt of fur. Seconds later the beastmaster is gone. In their place is a large grey wolf.

Or they shout, and their human voice cracks into a deep, bestial roar. Their body swells with muscle, clothes melting into a thick pelt of fur. Seconds later the beastmaster is gone. Standing in their place is a massive grizzly bear.

Or they shout, and their human voice cracks into a terrifying shriek. Their body shrinks down, their clothes melt into a layer of feathers. Seconds later the beastmaster is gone. Standing in their place is a fierce little falcon.

Anyway it goes, their eyes glow with a golden light when in animal form.

While transformed, you cannot use any equipment (including Artifacts and Consumables), and you do not have access to any of your Powers. Any equipment you are wearing transforms with you.

Injuries and Wound Level are carried over between forms. However, transforming can never kill you; you merely remain Incapacitated until your Injuries are sufficiently healed.

While transformed, you are obviously unusual, unnatural, or alien, and the average person will take a special interest in you.
