They can use their claws for 1d4 slashing damage for their unarmed strike.
Arctipaw Traits
Cold Resistance, Shadow Form, ClawsShadow Form- Arctipaw variant
When your character reaches level five, you have the option to take your Shadow Form at the expense of 30 shadow fragments. You then gain the ability to spend 4 shadow fragments once per long rest to freeze all enemies within a 10ft radius for one turn.
Claws
Instead of using bludgeoning damage, you can instead use your claws for 1d4 slashing damage.
Resistance to Cold
Your character only takes half the amount of cold damage. When you are in arctic terrain, your character isn't affected by difficult terrain in that region and doesn't take any damage concerning the freezing temperatures.
Bite
While in combat, you may bite an opponent within 5 feet of you using your action causing them to take 1d10 piercing damage. When you wish to make a bite attack, roll a strength check to see how the attack lands. If you roll below a 6, the opponent you attacked takes half as much damage, if you roll a 6 to 14 you deal normal damage, and if you roll a 15 or higher add half of the damage you dealt on the bite to the attack.
