Shifters are fierce hunters strongly influenced by their lycanthropic heritage. Making their home in the jungles of Viridia, shifters rely on their feral instincts and savage cunning for survival.

• <php>echo “<b>+2 Wisdom, -2 Charisma:</b>”;</php> Shifters have keen senses, with feral dispositions to match. Shifters have additional ability modifiers dependent on their chosen bloodline:

  • <php>echo “<i>Lupine:</i>”;</php> +2 Strength
  • <php>echo “<i>Ursine:</i>”;</php> +2 Constitution

• <php>echo “<b>Low-Light Vision:</b>”;</php> A shifter can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and other areas of poor illumination. He retains the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.
• <php>echo “<b>Skills:</b>”;</php> Shifters gain a +2 racial bonus on all Athletics and Survival checks.
• <php>echo “<b>Shifting (Su):</b>”;</php> A shifter can tap into their lycanthropic bloodline in order to gain powerful physical traits. Once per day as a swift action, a shifter can enter a state similar to a barbarian’s rage. Shifting lasts for a number of rounds equal to 3 + the shifter’s Con modifier (if increased by shifting, use the improved modifier). The benefits granted by the shifting ability are dependent on the shifter’s chosen bloodline:
  • <php>echo “<i>Feline:</i>”;</php> While shifting, a feline shifter gains a +2 bonus to Dexterity, a +10 ft. bonus to land speed, and natural weapons in the form of two claw attacks that inflict 1d4 + Str damage, +1 per four character levels.
  • <php>echo “<i>Lupine:</i>”;</php> While shifting, a lupine shifter gains a +2 bonus to Strength, a secondary bite attack that deals 1d6 + Str damage, +1 per four character levels, and the scent ability.
  • <php>echo “<i>Ursine:</i>”;</php> While shifting, an ursine shifter gains a +2 bonus to Constitution, +2 natural armor, and a +4 bonus on grapple checks. In addition, whenever a bearfoot shifter makes a successful grapple check while shifting, he deals 1d6 + Str damage, +1 per four character levels.
