1 - Shapeshifting
In battle, you unleash your true form, shifting your body into something faster, stronger, and more resilient. You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for unarmed strike attack and damage rolls.
As a bonus action, you can enter a primal shift, which lasts for 1 minute unless you are incapacitated or wearing heavy armor. While shifted, you gain a bonus to melee weapon damage rolls equal to your proficiency bonus, resistance to all damage except necrotic, psychic, and radiant, and advantage on Strength saving throws. You cannot maintain concentration on spells while shifted.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.

1 - Enhanced Senses
You have proficiency in Perception skill checks. You can see normally in darkness, both magical and nonmagical, to a distance of 60 feet. This vision is doubled when you get darkvision from your race.
1 - Shapeshifter Subclass
You gain a Shapeshifter subclass of your choice. A subclass is a specialization that grants you features at certain Shapeshifter levels. For the rest of your career, you gain each of your subclass’s features that are of your Shapeshifter level or lower.
2 - Defensive Stance
When an attacker that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the attack's damage against you.
2 - Cunning Action
Your quick thinking and agility allow you to move and act quickly. You can take a bonus action on each of your turns in combat. This action can be used only to take the Dash, Disengage, or Hide action.
4 - Ability Score Improvement
You gain the Ability Score Improvement feat or another feat of your choice for which you qualify. You gain this feature again at Shapeshifter levels 8, 12, and 16.
5 - Adaptable Form
You can subtly alter your form to adapt to different needs. When you shift, you can choose one of the following adaptations:
- Aquatic Adaptation: You gain a swim speed equal to your walking speed and can breathe underwater.
- Climbing Adaptation: You gain a climbing speed equal to your walking speed, and you can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check.
- Fleet Adaptation: Your movement speed increases by 10 feet, and opportunity attacks against you are made with disadvantage.
6 - Extra Attack
You can attack twice instead of once whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.
7 - Primal Strike
Your attacks while shapeshifted count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.
9 - Regenerative Shifting
While shapeshifted, you regain hit points equal to your Constitution modifier at the start of each of your turns if you have at least 1 hit point and no more than half of your hit points remaining.
11 - Evasion
You can dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as a red dragon's fiery breath or an Ice Storm spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Strength or Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.
13 - Blindsense
If you are able to hear, you are aware of the location of any hidden or invisible creature within 10 feet of you.
15 - Swift Strike
While shifted, you can take an additional reaction each round, which can only be used for opportunity attacks or to reduce falling damage.
16 - Elusive
You are so evasive that attackers rarely gain the upper hand against you. No attack roll has advantage against you while you aren't incapacitated.
18 - Elemental Affinity
You gain the ability to adapt to elemental forces. While shapeshifted, you have immunity to fire, cold, lightning, and acid.
20 - Shifting Paragon
Your shapeshifting ability reaches its peak. You can now shapeshift an unlimited number of times without needing a rest. Additionally, when you shapeshift, you gain temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus.
