Warden of Metamorphosis

Spellcast Trait: Instinct

Play the warden of Metamorphosis if you want to gain mastery over transformations.

Foundation

Partial form: When you use your "beast form" feature you can instead only partially transform into the form, either by only transforming your limbs or by becoming an anthropomorphic version of the beast form. When you do this you retain the ability to use domain effects and weapons, but you only gain one of the forms features and only gain either the trait or evasion bonus. You cannot choose the legendary/mythic hybrid or beast options for your partial form.

Specialization

Hybrid Unleashed: You can now choose legendary/mythic hybrid option when using your "Partial Form" feature, when you do you can gain an additional feature from the beastforms chosen or gain both the evasion and trait bonuses.

Shared morphology: You can use your "Partial Form" or "beastform" feature on a willing ally within close range of you instead of on yourself. You and the ally both mark the stress required to use this feature.

You can only have one ally (including yourself) in "beastform" or "partial form" at a time.

Mastery

Perfect form: When you use "partial form" you now gain all the features, the trait bonus and the evasion bonus that the chosen form provides.

Beast unleashed: You can now choose the legendary/mythic beats options when using your "partial form" or "beastform" feature. When you do, you can spend 3 hope to choose evolved beastform options from 1 tier higher than normal.

Warden of Withering

Warden of Withering

Spellcast Trait: Instinct

Play the warden of Decay if you wish to drain nature to empower you.

Foundation

Decay: Mark a stress to add 1d4 to any duality roll you make. This causes the all nature within a close range of you to rapidly decay.

Specialization

Absorb essence: When you or an ally reduces an adversary within close range to 0 hp, you can clear 1 stress.

Hastened Death: When an adversary within close range marks at least 1 hit point you can spend a stress to increase the amount marked by 1.

Mastery

Recycled Pain: When you mark any number of hit points, you clear one stress.

Greater Decay: The bonus dice from your "decay" feature is now a d6 and you can mark an additional stress to increase it to a d10, when you do this all nature within far range rapidly decays.
