[ Shapeshifter ] Shapeshifters are amazing creatures with the ability to transform their shape. They were once thought of as a higher rank than any other species in their world or any other. This is due to their unique power, which also allows them to gain the attributes and abilities of the creature they turned into. It was said that these beings used to run the world a long time ago, but over time, other species began to emerge overtop of them. They are less popular, but the memory of them was still superior, how they could triumph over all by matching them in every way. It is unsure why their numbers declined so rapidly, but whatever it was still couldn’t keep them down and they survived through it all. Shapeshifters can be seen as evil, good, or neutral, and they can change their form in a variety of ways depending on their subspecies, from breaking every bone in their body to taking the skin of others and using that in order to take their shape.

[ Animal Shifter ] This species of shapeshifter usually have only two forms, a human one and another. What it is depends on their upbringing and what creatures they were most familiar with. There are others, however, that can do some incredible things, able to change into whatever they put their mind too. This takes a lot of strength, knowledge and experience, however, and is much harder to do. They have to know the species and what they can do before they even attempt it. To them, shapeshifting is an art and if they can master that art, they could even possess the ability to take a younger form of themselves, allowing them to look young, and even live forever if they can do it right. These species, unfortunately, have a drawback. They have to remain with a clear and focused mind, or they could accidentally turn into something they didn’t want to.
