[QUOTE="Azazyll, post: 1628709, member: 4367"] So, I have a player who wants to play a lycanthrope. This is of course still permissable under "the same, but different" concept, but the background makes it really hard for werebeasts to move around, what with the Church of the Silver Flame killing every lycanthrope they can get there hands on. So my player wants to masquerade as a anomalous Shifter and conceal her true nature from the other characters at first. Usually, this would just be a disguise check, but I can't really see that applying in this case. The only time she really needs to fool people is while in hybrid form (she obviously can't turn into animal form, that's going to stretch beyond credibility). So, what mechanic would you use the conceal the lycanthrope's transformation as a Shifter's shift? The main book doesn't go into too much detail about what shifting looks like. Should it still be a disguise check? Would hide or bluff work better? Any thoughts or ideas on the subject would be appreciated [/QUOTE]
