Glaucanthrope (Fae-Touched)

Glaucanthrope (Fae-Touched)

A creature with this feat possesses a primal connection to the wild, influenced by the fae, granting them the ability to transform into a hybrid or full glaucanthrope form.

Prerequisite: Contracted Lycanthropy, Owlin

Damage Resistances: Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing from Nonmagical Attacks that aren't Silvered while in Glaucanthrope form.

Primal Influence: Your connection to the primal wild increases as you transform.

• Normal Form: Mild Primal Influence (subtle personality shifts).
• Hybrid Form: Moderate Primal Influence (noticeable shifts, more cunning).
• Full Form: Overwhelming Primal Influence (beast takes over).

Shapechange: You can use your bonus action to shift between your humanoid form and your hybrid glaucanthrope form. Your statistics, other than those specified below, are the same in each form. Your armor and weapons so not merge into your form, and you may use your weapons and Class actions as normal. You revert to your true form if you die. Shapechange lasts until you choose to revert or are incapacitated. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.

Hybrid Form: While in hybrid form, you gain the following benefits:

• Size: Your size remains the same.
• Enhanced Senses: You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight or hearing.
• Primal Strike: Your unarmed strikes deal an additional 1d4 necrotic or psychic damage (your choice) at 1st level, increasing to 1d6 at 5th level, 1d8 at 11th level, and 1d10 at 17th level.
• Fae Trickery: You can cast either Misty Step or Charm Person (owl-like charm) as a 1st-level spell. Your spellcasting ability for this spell is Wisdom. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.
• Primal Nature: You are more cunning and less merciful in this form. This primarily affects roleplaying interactions.

Full Transformation: Either during night when the moon is visible, or you are reduced to half your max hit points, you can use your action to transform into your full glaucanthrope form.
