A bodyshifter is essentially a mix between the [[SRD:Druid|Druid]] and the [[SRD:Monk|Monk]], instead of casting spells and turning into animal the bodyshifter focus on only partially transforming her body. The bodyshifter use her own body to her best advantage, smashing her foes with powerful unarmed strikes and adapt to the situation by strategically shifting her body. The bodyshifter use a point allocation mechanic, she may invest points in powerful bodyshifts or in less powerful bodymorphs. However she may only have a single active bodyshift, but an unlimited amount of bodymorphs. Additionally bodymorphs can be easily allocated and re-allocated, while bodyshifts require a 10 minute meditation period.

Class Features[edit]

All of the following are class features of the bodyshifter.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A bodyshifter is proficient with all simple and martial weapons, all shields (except tower shields) but no armor.

Shift Points: Bodyshifters possess a number of shift points which she may invest between various Bodyshifts and bodymorphs. Her shift points are never expended; instead they are invested between these abilities.

AC Bonus (Ex): A bodyshifter gains an armor bonus to AC equal to 4 + 1/2 Class level.

Unarmed Strike: At 1st level, a bodyshifter gains Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. A bodyshifter’s attacks may be with either fist interchangeably or even from elbows, knees, and feet. This means that a bodyshifter may even make unarmed strikes with her hands full. There is no such thing as an off-hand attack for a bodyshifter striking unarmed. A bodyshifter may thus apply her full Strength bonus on damage rolls for all her unarmed strikes.

Usually a bodyshifter’s unarmed strikes deal lethal damage, but she can choose to deal nonlethal damage instead with no penalty on her attack roll. She has the same choice to deal lethal or nonlethal damage while grappling.

A bodyshifter’s unarmed strike is treated both as a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that enhance or improve either manufactured weapons or natural weapons.

A bodyshifter also deals more damage with her unarmed strikes than a normal person would, as shown on Table: The Bodyshifter. The unarmed damage on Table: The Bodyshifter is for Medium bodyshifter. A Small bodyshifter deals less damage than the amount given there with her unarmed attacks, while a Large bodyshifter deals more damage; see Table: Bodyshifter Unarmed Damage by Size.

Bodyshift (Su): The eponymous ability of a bodyshifter, allowing them to manipulate their body in otherwise unthinkable ways. A bodyshifter only has a single active bodyshift, and may switch between them as a swift action. An active bodyshift remains in place until changed, or if the bodyshifter dies.

The effectiveness of a bodyshift depends on the amount of shift point invested into them. A bodyshifter may allocate or reallocate all of her available points by meditating for 10 minutes. The bodyshifter cannot invest more points in each bodyshift than 1 + 1/3rd her class level.

A bodyshifter starts knowing a single bodyshift at 1st and learns another at 2nd level and 4th and each 4 levels thereafter, selecting them from the list below.

Bodymorph (Su): The bodyshifter also possesses the ability to make minor alterations to her body. Unlike bodyshifts, she may have as many bodymorphs active at the same time as she pleases. However unlike a bodyshift, she must invest an amount of shift point into them to activate them and cannot be augmented further. The amount of shift point needed to activate a bodymorph is written in parentheses next to the bodymorph.

Unlike a bodyshift, you may reallocate all points invested in a bodymorph as a move action. Similarly, they remain in place until you reallocate the points into them or die. The bodyshifter cannot reinvest points invested into a bodymorph to a bodyshift, or vise versa.

Unlike bodyshifts, the bodyshifter knows all bodymorphs available to her from the start:

Adaptive Eyesight (1): The bodyshifter's vision become much more powerful, granting herself a bonus on Spot equal to half her level, low-light vision and darkvision 60 ft. If she already had darkvision, she instead increase the range of her darkvision by 60 ft.
Big Hand (2): The bodyshifter gain the benefits of Oversize Grip even if she does not meet the prerequisites. Additionally, she counts as one size category larger for the purpose of calculating her unarmed strike damage.
Big Head (1): The bodyshifter is constantly under the effect of big head mode.
Cosmetic Morph (1): The bodyshifter can changes her appearance radically. She may make cosmetic changes to herself within the limits of the disguise self spell, except that the changes are phsyical and the bodyshifter cannot alter her clothes.
Chameleon Skin (2): The bodyshifter gain the ability to blend in her surrounding, granting her a +4 bonus to Hide. If she stand completely still for 3 rounds she gain the ability to hide without cover and concealment with +8 bonus instead.
Fast Legs (2): The bodyshifter's base land speed increases by 10 feet.
Flexible Spine (1): The bodyshifter gains the benefits of the Flexible feat even if she does not meet the prerequisites.
Merform (3): The bodyshifter is constantly under the effects of merform.
Suction Cups (2): The bodyshifter is constantly under the effect of spider climb.
Superstrong Legs (2): The bodyshifter gains a +20 bonus on Jump checks. She adds the distance she may use Extend Limbs to the distance traveled with each jump.

Masterwork Body (Ex): A 1st level bodyshifter receives Masterwork Body as a bonus feat.

Shapechanger (Ex): A 1st level bodyshifter gain the Shapechanger subtype.

Extend Limbs (Su): A 2nd level the bodyshifter has learned how to extend her limbs, this allows her to manipulate objects around her up to 20 feet outside of her reach. While she may manipulate objects (such as dragging a box or activating a lever), she is unable to use this ability to attack or activate magic items. The distance she can extend her limbs doubles at 7th level and each 5 levels thereafter.

Efficient Physique (Ex): At 3rd level the bodyshifter become immune to the Fatigued condition. If she is made Exhausted she takes penalty as if she was Fatigued.

Morphic Endurance: A 3rd level bodyshifter gains Endurance as a bonus feats, the bonus granted by endurance increases by +1 at 5th level and each five levels thereafter.

Variable Build (Su): A 3rd level bodyshifter gains both powerful build and slight build (counting as either a size larger or smaller) as her form shift whenever it would be advantageous.

Morphic Reach (Ex): At 8th and 16th level, the bodyshifter's natural reach increases by 5'.

Shifting Resistance (Ex): A 5th level bodyshifter become immune to effect which change her shape against her will, such as polymoprh spells and petrification. She may also always revert to her native form as a move action.

Variable Adaptation (Su): At 5th level the bodyshifter is capable of spontaneously adapting to her environment, growing gills underwater or a heatproof skin in an extremely hot environment. After staying 3 consecutive rounds in a particular environment, she adapts to it as per adapt body. Despite being able to adapt to almost anything she still may still need to breath and thus might still suffocate in airless environments.

At 15th level she adapts to her environment instantaneously.

Mettle (Ex): A 6th level bodyshifter gains the benefits of mettle as an hexbladeCW, but only for Fortitude saves.

Shed Skin (Su): As a move action, the 7th level bodyshifter can shed her skin to remove negative effects. At the start of her next turn she is cured of negative effects with a non-permanent duration and she heal hit points, ability damage and burn as if she rested 8 hours. She make shed her skin even if she normally could not take a move action, such as while being stunned.

Shedding her skin has drawback as well, doing so require 1 shift point which become unavailable for 1 hour.

Fortified Body (Ex): A 10th level bodyshifter has such a control over her body that she can shift her internal organs out of harm's way and control her immune system perfectly. She becomes immune to critical hits, diseases and poisons.

Extraordinary Shifts (Ex): An 11th level bodyshifter's supernatural class features become extraordinary.

Timeless Body (Ex): A 13th level bodyshifter gain Timeless Body as a druid.

Primordial Soup (Ex): When a 14th level bodyshifter dies, her body decays into a strange ooze-like soup within 1d4 days of death. The soup is treated as acid but only for biological creatures. If it is left to it own devices for at least a year however, the bodyshifter emerges from it with a new body identical to her old one and the soup dissolves. The soup can be used as a focus for any resurrection spell, removing any level loss or penalty from being resurrected. Any creature dissolved in the pool become part of it, speeding up the process by a number of days equal to it CR.

If the bodyshifter died of old age or cannot otherwise be resurrected the bodyshifter's body still dissolve into soup but never allow the bodyshifter to come back until she is able to be brought back to life again. The pool may be disrupted or destroyed, forcing the bodyshifter to be raised in a more conventional manner.

Dual Shift (Ex): A 15th level bodyshifter may now use two bodyshifts at the same time instead of one.

Biological Renewal (Ex): The 19th level bodyshifter's body is capable of making a mockery of death. She may use her Shed Skin ability to return from the dead, upon doing so she is brought back to life as per true resurrection. The process require 5 rounds, which the Bodyshifter's remaining cells clump together and start growing. Any damage dealt to the clump is dealt to the resurrected bodyshifter, if enough damage is done to kill her again the attempted regeneration fail. The bodyshifter may try again with another use of Shed Skin.

In order to use this ability the bodyshifter must have at least one or more cell still in existence, so effects which destroy her utterly make her completely unable to come back this way.

Evershifting Chaos (Ex): A 20th level bodyshifter may redistribute her shift points between her body shift and/or bodymorph as a free action once per round.

List of Bodyshifts[edit]

All of the creature's equipment drops on the ground. However, she may decide upon absorption to automatically equip any number of them as a free action, assuming the appropriate body slots are free.
