Mage Shapeshifting

For mages with Life 4+ that wish to shapeshift, each shape must be "built" before it will be set into the +shift code and added to your forms.

Base Successes for Transformation
As shown on the Magickal Feats Chart, transformations require between two and five successes:

Two successes	change into a fairly similar shape (woman to man)
Three successes	change into a radically different shape (woman to mist)
Four successes	change another character into a fairly similar shape (man into pig)
Five successes or more	to change that other party into a radically different shape (man into cobblestone).
For details about conjuring and shaping inanimate objects and natural elements, see the Elemental Mastery section, (pp. 26-41).
