Rules Update: Druid Promotional Skill

The Druid Promotional Skill (Skin of the Chameleon) has been replaced with the following:

Transmute Form
Event Based; 5 Build
The caster, along with any possessions they are carrying, changes form to that of their Totem Animal. The change takes five seconds of concentration to perform, and the Druid may change between animal and native forms as many times as they wish within an hour of the ability being invoked.  The druid immediately reverts to native form at the end of an hour.  While in animal form, the caster retains only their Body Points, and the ability to call any skills or latent effects of a defensive nature.  The Druid retains their intelligence, but cannot communicate unless an ability is used on them that allows communication with animals by another character.  The use of a mask or other appropriate representation is strongly encouraged.  While in animal form, the druid also gains 30 build worth of lower list skills, Druid Points, or Body Points (at a 3:1 ratio) that are approved by the director and deemed to be appropriate for the animal totem, which will be noted on the Druid's card. The following skills are also available:

• ( 2 ) Small Claws: Druid may use a pair of small weapon sized claws while in animal form, that deal 1 damage each.
• ( 4 ) Large Claws: Druid may use a pair of 1-handed weapon sized claws while in animal form, that deal 2 damage each.
• ( 10 ) Might (Prerequisite - Small or Large Claws): The Druid may use any Strength or Weapon, Brawling, or Martial Arts Prof skills from their native form while in Animal form, with the claws (Weapon Profs apply to both claws, even if the skill is for a specific hand).  A Druid with Might has hardened claws, and does not take damage to them.  Additionally, if they have the spell Maul, they may Surge Cast and Weapon Cast it, and only that spell, while in Animal Form.
• ( 10 ) Flight: This ability allows the caster to fly instantly to a height of twenty feet in the air as long as the character stands with her arm outstretched and palm raised face out. The caster can only move at a slow walking pace while flying. While flying, the Druid may use skills granted to them by their Animal Form, or any defenses they may have.  The character can lower herself completely and safely to the ground so long as she is maintaining the ability, but if the ability ends for any reason while she is flying, she immediately falls to the ground with the normal force of gravity.  A character that is flying may not attack a target on the ground - they must land first to do so.  After landing (for any reason) you may not take off again for 10 minutes.
• ( 8 ) Stealth - As per the Master Rogue skill.

Never before have I wanted to play a Druid as hard as I do right now... I currently envy all druids...

Questions:

What happens when offensive effects are upon a person before using Transmute Form. For example, target has +2 damage from a battle cry then uses transmute form. Or target has spirit of the dragon active then calls transmute form, do they still receive the +2 damage in each case or do they not get the damage and only the body from spirit of the dragon?

If your totem has Might can you use your own Druid point pool to cast Maul or only the DP you have bought at a 3:1 ratio with the promo build?

Is it possible for a Druid to Transmute in to different animal forms IE you turn in to a Lion for combat, but a hawk to take flight. or is it totem specific?

Could this allow me to play Honest Treeworthy: Owl Psychologist? 

He'd be an adorable owl who wears a tiny pair of spectacles, and though he only tweets and twists his head at odd angles and swoops down to catch the occasional shrew...all his patients come away feeling better, and with a new understanding of themselves.

Fogrom: "Mr. Treeworthy, Mr. Treeworthy!  This man, he's gone insane!  Can you help him?"

Honest Treeworthy: "Find someone who gives a hoot...me." *transforms into an owl with tiny spectacles*

wow you win
