Back to [[Serpents and Sewers: Species and Templates|Species]] Back to the [[Serpents and Sewers|Main page]] ==Shifters in Serpents and Sewers== ==Shifter Racial Abilities== All Shifter characters use these common features: * '''Abilities''': +2 to Dexterity, +2 to Constitution, -2 to Intelligence –2 to Charisma. Shifters are lithe and agile yet tough and wiry, but they their bestial nature detracts them from reasoning and more elegant social interaction. * '''Medium''': As Medium creatures, Shifters have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size. * Shifter base land speed is 30 feet. * '''Shapeshifting''': Shifter can tap their lycanthropic heritage and have the ability to slightly change their shape to increase their physical prowess. They may chose one simple Beast feature from the [[Serpents and Sewers: Shapechanger|Shapechanger]] beast feature list and may use it at will. If they purchase additional beast features by taking class levels in the Shapeshifter class, this beast feature stacks and counts for fulfilling requirements. They also gain the Humanoid Form Beast Feature as a free bonus feature. * '''Low-Light Vision''': A Shifter can see twice as far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditions of poor illumination. They retain the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions. * '''Physical Prowess''': Shifter characters gain a +2 racial bonus to Athletics Checks. * '''The inner Beast''': Shifter characters don’t need the Divine Gift to get access to the Shapechanger class; the abilities of this class are nothing but the perfection of their innate shapeshifting abilities. * '''Favored Class''': Berserker and Shapechanger. Shifters who follow these two classes receive an additional skill point or hitpoint per level. ==Further Advancement of Shifters== {| border="1" !Level !Feature |- |4th |Beast Instincts |- |8th |Tapping the Wild Heritage |- |12th |Improved Shifting |- |16th |Ability Boost |- |20th |Unstoppable |- |} * '''Beast Instincts (ex)''': The Shifter character gains a +2 bonus to Initiative and all Search, Spot and Listen checks * '''Tapping the Wild Heritage (Su)''': The Shifter gains Damage Reduction equal to his or her Constitution modifier/Silver. * '''Improved Shifting (ex)''': At 12th level, the Shifter gains an additional Beast Feature from the Shapechanger advanced Beast Feature list. * '''Ability Bonus''': On 16th level, a Shifter character gains a +2 bonus to either their strength or wisdom ability scores. * '''Unstoppable (su)''': While using his or her beast features, a Shifter character of 20th level gains fast healing 2 and does not suffer from any penalties through wounds, injuries or pain.
