Feats:

Superior Kitsune Shapeshift

Prerequisite: Kitsune You gain the following benefits:  

• You can use the Kitsune's Shapeshift as a bonus action.
• You can disguise as another human you see. Make a deception check. The DC for the deception check is 10 + targets charisma saving throw. This is to copy mannerisms of said target. If you make it you have advantage on all deception checks to act as the target. If you fail the targets 'allies' will notice something suspicious and make a insight check against your roll.
• You can turn into a fox (use Cat statistics). You still keep your hitpoints, skills checks, natural attacks (now finesse), proficiency bonus, ability scores (whichever is better) and the ability to speak (only speak Sylvan). You also can use class features and can cast kitsune spells. Spells requiring a somatic component automatically fail unless you have the War Caster Feat.

In order to cast these spell this way you use the magic from your tails. For example: you have three tails, you can cast disguise self three times or can cast major image once.
