Shapechanger, Improved Bestial Might

Creature Type.
The affected creature adds the shapechanger subtype to their existing subtypes.

Cursed by the Moon.


When the full moon rises, you are forced to assume the shape of your hybrid form. Your
character’s actions for the night are determined entirely by the alignment specific to their version
of lycanthropy. At the next dawn, your character returns to humanoid form. You remember these
events as if they were a nightmare and might have trouble recalling your actions in their entirety.
In addition, you have vulnerability to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage dealt by silver
weapons.

Shapechange.
You can transform into an animal human hybrid, an animal, or into your true form, which is your
original humanoid form. Your statistics, except as noted under your Lycanthropy Form, are the
same in each form. Any equipment you are wearing or carrying isn't transformed. Clothes or
armor you are wearing are shed or destroyed if your new form does not fit into them. While in
animal form, you are unable to speak. You revert to your true form if you die. You are unable to
control this transformation when initially afflicted with lycanthropy, but gradually gain more
control as you gain levels in the Lycanthropy template.

Controlled Shapechange.
As an action, you may attempt to activate your Shapechanger trait to change forms by making a
Constitution saving throw. The DC of this saving throw depends on your current form and your
desired form, as described in the table below. On a successful saving throw, you may use
Shapechanger to change into your desired form. On a failed saving throw, you suffer one level of
exhaustion.

Master Shapechanger.

saving throw with Advantage. In addition, you no longer lose control of your character when the
full moon rises, though you are still forced to assume your hybrid form for 24 hours.
