To keep things simple, we've always said that it had to be a creature
from the critters table in the main book. Pretty wide range, really.
I wasn't there at the time, but my compadres were facing a vampire with
a hostage on the roof of a building. Edge levitated up there (quickened)
and turned the hostage into an elephant. The GM says that the vamp
didn't really have any trouble holding her, but it sure changed the
tactical situation.

The problem with casting (critter) form and cleaning up (besides not
having any armor) is that you'll be at plus 2s for maintaining the
spell. Not too usefull IMO.

I once had an idea for a character whose only motivation was to
initiate, go out to the docks, quicken a shapechange spell on himself,
turn into a shark and disappear forever! It would really freak out
the team, doncha think?
