Editing Master of Many Forms (section)

==Shifter class==
The Master of Many Forms is an updated version of the Shifter prestige class from third edition - not to be confused with the [[Shifter]] ''race'' introduced with Ebberon, which while having a sort of shape changing mechanic, doesn't come close to the power or mechanics of either class by itself. Notable elements that the Shifter class has over the Master of Many Forms include more creature types to turn into, including animals (possibly overriding any limits on animal changing you may have from your class), outsiders (so you can theoretically turn into an [[achaierai]]), and even constructs, gaining dark vision at level 10, and gaining unlimited regular wild shapes - and thus greater wild shape - at level 10. It seems as if Wizards of the Coast thought the Shifter was too overpowered or something and put a [[nerf]] on its capabilities.

Another notable element is that this prestige class has appeared in an expansion for the 2002 [[Neverwinter Nights]] game, in a modified form with more restricted form selection, but the Master of Many Forms class (its v3.5 version) didn't appear in Neverwinter Nights 2, neither in the original game or official expansions.
