Wild Shape

Acquiring Wild Shapes

To acquire a new wild shape, one must usually:

1. Be in an appropriate biome to find the creature.
2. Locate at least one specimen.
3. Observe the specimen for the requisite amount of time:
   • 15 minutes: If you're able to get up close and personal with the creature.
   • 60 minutes: If you can only observe the creature at a distance.

Effects between forms

An effect on a creature persists on that creature where analogous body parts subject to the effect are present. As an example, enhancement of a bear's claws (coating them in acid or poison) would not persist back to the humanoid form (unless the humanoid has claws, like a tabaxi) but could be carried over from bear form to another form with claws or talons.
