As the GM who is running the shapeshifter in question, I'd like to point
out some of the limitations I have put on this character. As Jim pointed
out, he can only wear 100% natural clothing. While he may wear armor
inserts in his jacket, they are expelled when he shifts.

Also, I am running a "more metahumans" campaign. But, I made the character
pay priority A for the priviledge. He is a physical Adept, but ended up
with only 5 points of magic to spend after I assigned his "racial"
abilities. (And, no, he does not have those nifty such as enhanced
physical attributes or reneration. He heals at twice normal rate, true,
but I set up the powers that he does have as physad powers.)
Furthermore, any mage that sees him is going to know him for what he is, if
they can pierce his masking. (Grade 0 initiate)

And third, I would probably NOT let any other player play this race.

Fourth, It's my campaign; I'm not trying to encourage YOU to do the same


Life is complex.... You know, part real, part imaginary
