Speed 30ft

Shapeshift: Can physically turn into any humanoid creature of the same size, you may change every aspect of your appearance from your body's dimensions and gender to your facial structure and voice. Shifters turn to their true form upon death and falling unconscious.   persona: Shifters are masters of of social skills, able to read what another feels from the smallest of clues and speak lies or truths as easily as breathing, this mastery allows them to form personas. Shifters utilize this skill mostly out of necessity as they are generally met with superstition and distrust, along these personas they often adopt a skill or profession to help blend in. (Each persona receives a Knowledge or craft skill as if it were a class skill [no bonus skill points just training] and may have as many personas up to their Charisma mod with a minimum of 1, each persona must have some backstory, alignment and takes a day of solitude to create)   Stolen tongue: Shifters are known for their unsettling auras and otherworldly powers. Most of these are little more than rumor, one that is true however is their ability to rob one of their speech with eye contact. (Players may lock eyes with anyone within 10ft as a reaction forcing them to make a WILL save with a DC of your Charisma mod, Failure results in the target being silenced for as long as their within 10ft and may repeat the save every round to break out of the effect)   Note: (this is more of lore than anything) Shifters are androgynous in their true form, It can be difficult to identify them as one or the other as truth is they are neither. Though they may lean slightly more to Masculinity or Femininity they lack their respective organs, this causes Shifters to be sterile.   __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Racial Bonus Features   Monstrous Change: Shifters with this feature may now turn into monstrous humanoids such as beastmen as well as normal humanoids. If they are to change into something with extra extremities such as wings they gain a flight speed equal to their movement with poor control. (players may improve their control with practice) Shifters who adopt monstrous forms also any natural weapons it may posses.   Size control: Shifters with this feature may now change one size smaller or larger and gain the respective bonuses/penalties for that size.(Small and large are your options as a medium creature.)   Gathered Tongues: Shifters with this feature may instead take a language as their persona's skill dependent of it's race. (Shifters lose this language in any other form)
