The subject gains the Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution scores of the new form but retains its own Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. If slain, the subject reverts to its original form, though it remains dead.
Upon changing, the subject regains lost hit points as if it had rested for a night (though this healing does not restore temporary ability damage and provide other benefits of resting and changing back does not heal the subject further). The subject’s creature type and subtype (if any) change to match the new form. You can’t cause a subject to assume a form smaller than Fine, nor can you cause a subject to assume an incorporeal or gaseous form. The assumed form can’t have more Hit Dice than your caster level (or the subject’s HD, whichever is lower), to a maximum of 15 HD at 15th level.
The new form may be of the same type as the subject or any of the following types: aberration, animal, dragon, fey, giant, humanoid, magical beast, monstrous humanoid, ooze, plant, or vermin. This spell functions like alter self, except that you change the willing subject into another form of living creature. At 20th level, a druid may use this wild shape ability to change into a Huge elemental. She also gains the elemental’s feats for as long as she maintains the wild shape, but she retains her own creature type.Īt 18th level, a druid becomes able to assume elemental form twice per day, and at 20th level she can do so three times per day. In addition to the normal effects of wild shape, the druid gains all the elemental’s extraordinary, supernatural, and spell-like abilities. These elemental forms are in addition to her normal wild shape usage. (A druid can’t use this ability to take the form of a plant that isn’t a creature.)Īt 16th level, a druid becomes able to use wild shape to change into a Small, Medium, or Large elemental (air, earth, fire, or water) once per day. The new form’s Hit Dice can’t exceed the character’s druid level.Īt 12th level, a druid becomes able to use wild shape to change into a plant creature with the same size restrictions as for animal forms. In addition, she gains the ability to take the shape of a Large animal at 8th level, a Tiny animal at 11th level, and a Huge animal at 15th level.
(The normal sound a wild parrot makes is a squawk, so changing to this form does not permit speech.)Ī druid can use this ability more times per day at 6th, 7th, 10th, 14th, and 18th level, as noted on Table: The Druid. The form chosen must be that of an animal the druid is familiar with.Ī druid loses her ability to speak while in animal form because she is limited to the sounds that a normal, untrained animal can make, but she can communicate normally with other animals of the same general grouping as her new form. Changing form (to animal or back) is a standard action and doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity. The effect lasts for 1 hour per druid level, or until she changes back. This ability functions like the polymorph spell, except as noted here. Her options for new forms include all creatures with the animal type. Wild Shape (Su): At 5th level, a druid gains the ability to turn herself into any Small or Medium animal and back again once per day.
