Another question regarding Shapeshifters..., -And easier on the flames people... Options

[Tiralee]

Hiya,

Ok, I know that it's probabily in the 3rd Edition Magic in the Shadows -


But what happens to a shapeshifter when s/he/it passes out of the earth's manasphere?

As a dual-natured ceature, are there any specific problems, or is it only when a creature, metahuman or otherwise, goes astral in the deep black?

Once again comments, questions and criticism are welcomed.


Oh, and if any of the canon-authors are out there, any chance of the stats for swan, heron, owl and horse shapeshifters? (As mentioned on page 141, Paranormal Animals of Europe.)

And on a totally different topic, anyone notice in Rigger 3, page 8, the biker on the chopper at the bottom of the picture? Amazingly, I noticed this while listening to "Dragula".

Any Rob Zombie fans out there care to comment? :talker:

I don't think there's a specific ruling for it. But bear in mind that shifters are animals first and humans second. In other words, until the mana levels got high enough they were just ordinary specimens of their species, though perhaps larger or more intelligent. I'd say they revert to animal form in the presence of exceptionally low mana, and would probably lose their dual natured aspects as well which would actually prevent them from dying or going mad instantly.

Or perhaps not. Given that I can't think of a specific example from the books its probably up to the GM to decide how harsh they want to be!
