Hey, shapechangers aren't really munchkin. I've seen a vampire and a
werewolf played, and both are quite fascinating to watch. But I can
guarantee you the werewolf isn't munchkinous, as it can only wear 100%
natural clothing and change and expect to get it back. For example, for
armor, I think he went out and killed a cow, dried the skin into leather,
and made himself a jacket out of it for a rating of 1/2 or something silly
like that. Translation: if he jumps out in front of a pretty nasty gun,
he's fragged. (But then, that's why they stick me in front. I'm the one
with the armor.:)

But, on the other hand, there's this 15-die attack he gets while in wolf
form............
