Shapeshifters/Metamorphs

[Akimori]

• Shapeshifters ( commonly called "Metamorphs" by some persons ) are beings that can take the shape of any creatures : Animals ( Still alive or not. Exemple : Sabertooth tigers ) and Humans ( not all metamorphs can do that ).

• They have a main form with whom they feel the most right definited after their childhood. It's easier for them to shift into their main form under some circumstances/emotions.
The instinct and behaviors of that animal will remain forever, modeled on their human behaviors.

• Unlike other kintypes, it's easier for them to go through "the barrier" ( they can do it in a matter of seconds ) as they spent their time shifting into everything they've seen.
As childs, the phantom shifts of the animal they were always choosing was never "undercover" so other animals ( such as dogs, cats... which have a sixth sense, can sense a metamorph ) if these one still doesn't know how to "keep" it's phantom shifts unseen.
By lack of experience and because of their young ages, the metamorphs only learn how to contain their phantom shifts during their teenagehood.

• The animal that they take the shape of doesn't have to necessarily be in front of them. It can be seen on a picture, on a video, on tv, etc... Once their brain registered the shape of an animal, the metamorphs can automatically shift into one of them whenever they wants.
