I like to help when I can - even if its just bouncing ideas or concreting you on your original ideas.Might have to play with some examples. If you do increase the HD/day, yopu might need to make a second column of information listing the highest HD specific form taken per level. For example, at 1st level you may have 6HD/day but can only take the form of 2HD creatures. This will prevent abuses.Toss in a link to the thread? I couldnt seem to find it.As for the CR vs HD, it might be worthwhile to put a little data together comparing creatures at key points like 2HD vs 2CR, 5HD vs 5CR, 10HD vs 10CR, etc. and see what the differences look like. In general I think CR is a better scale of "power" than HD.Also... do you plan to allow 1/2 and 1/4 HD (or CR) forms?This would be on par with the Druid's Wild shape. I think, considering that the class has no spellcasting or other abilities as does the Druid, that 1 hour per level would be fair and much more useful. Thus at 20th level, they could take the form of a decently powerful creature and remain in that form for the majority of the day instead of wasting their entire class's ability in two 20-minute shots for the day.This makes sense in its concept. However, I'm still not convinced the familiar works, but thats your call, since I am biased against them anyway. As for the feats, I can understand the premise, but it may tend to make them a bit weak. I would have to see some test runs.Hope that helps some.</blockquote>
