[QUOTE="Hatchling Dragon, post: 518066, member: 580"] If you plan on playing this character more than one or two sessions you really should get this book. I agree with those that have stated it's one of the best splat books put out. Because of this book I've thought about playing a Druid next. I'm amazed that this statement/question and the frequent mentions of [i]Masters of the Wild[/i] didn't net you the suggestion of aiming for [i]Shifter[/i], or whatever the name is for the PrC that specializes in shapeshifting. It's acutaly the only PrC in the book that would work for Wizards and Sorcerers, as you just have to be able to assume other forms via magic (ie: [i]Polymorph[/i] or [i]Wildshape[/i]). You'll, eventualy, be able to acutaly [b]use[/b] those [b]Su[/b] type abilities and assume nearly [i]any[/i] size and shape creature, including Dragons! Not to mention using your [i]Wildshape[/i] to assume the exact likeness of others, something that not even [i]Polymorph[/i] can do! :eek: I also think that having [i]Natural Caster[/i] is a pre-req. of the class, so that'd work out. I thought that [i]Infusions[/i] were basicaly a 'themed' version of [i]Potions[/i], designed to be more 'natural' and Druidic-feeling. I thought that whoever ate the [i]Infusion[/i] gained the benefit of the spell [i]Infused[/i] into it. I don't own the book (yet) but I've read through a friend's copy. Hatchling Dragon [/QUOTE]
