[QUOTE="Shade, post: 4184019, member: 287"] I've started a [URL=http://www.enworld.org/showpost.php?p=4184006&postcount=327]Homebrews[/URL] entry to try to keep track of this. We'll probably want to eventually break them into individual templates, but this will give us a quick summary one click away. Let's try tackling this in small chunks. Here's the standard vampire's ability: Alternate Form (Su): A vampire can assume the shape of a bat, dire bat, wolf, or dire wolf as a standard action. While in its alternate form, the vampire loses its natural slam attack and dominate ability, but it gains the natural weapons and extraordinary special attacks of its new form. It can remain in that form until it assumes another or until the next sunrise. (If the base creature is not terrestrial, this power might allow other forms.) One possible source of difference...since it only took a "segment", we might make this a free action or swift action rather than the typical standard. Hmmm....it almost sounds like alter self as a supernatural ability, but with a lower bonus on Disguise checks to impersonate another. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
