 == Shapeshift (Su) ==
-(As detailed in the PHB2, pgs. 39-41)
+Witches can shapeshift at will into powerful animal or nature-oriented forms. Each time she uses this ability, she can choose the exact look that her shapeshifted form takes. Witches pick animals from the terrain and climate they're most familiar with. For example, a witch from a jungle might adopt the form of a black panther when in predator form, while one from a colder climate might shapeshift into a white wolf. the two forms look different, but functionally, they're identical. This is a supernatural ability. It requires only a swift action to shapeshift. If a witch is capable of taking more than one form, she can shapeshift directly between the two forms without returning to her normal form. There is no limit to the number of times per day you can change forms, nor to the amount of time you can spend in a shapeshifted form.
+A witch retains normal hit dice, hit points, base attack bonus, base saving throw bonuses, and skill ranks regardless of her form. She also retains her normal ability scores, though each form grants a bonus to her strength scores. The witch keeps all extraordinary, supernatural, and spell-like special attacks and qualities of your normal form, exceot those requiring a body part your new form does not have. All her held, carried, or worn gear melds into her new form and becomes non-functional until she returns to her normal form. She cannot speak in shapeshifted form, and her limbs lack the precision required to wield a weapon or perform tasks requiring fine manipulation. She cannot cast spells or activate magic items while in shapeshifted form, even if she has the natural spell feat or other ability that would allow her to cast spells while wild shaped.
+Unless otherwise noted in the descriptiopns below, the witch retains her size and space when she adopts a new form. She alwys retainsher type and subtype, regardless of the nature of the form assumed. She does not gain any special attacks or qualities while shapeshifted except as described below.
+Whne a witch shapeshifts to a form other than her own, she gains natural weapons (and reach with those weapons) as described below. These natural weaponsgain an enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls equal to 1/4 her witch level, and at 4th level and higher they are treated as magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. (The damage given is for small witches; for smaller or larger characters, adjust values according to the values given on page 28 of the DMG.) If knocked unconscious or slain in shapeshifted form, she returns to her original form.
