The Compendium Class for the Druid that doesn’t care about multiple forms or is just really into one specific form. Enough to make a pact with the ancestor off all the animals of this kind.

  1. Five moves is… kind of a lot? More than I would think most animal forms would need, honestly. Maybe grant them extra hold instead? Or even something like “Pick two other druid moves when you take this move, but you can only shapeshift into this form from now on” so you could get extra hold, or extra damage, or damage-prevention, or whatever as appropriate/desired.

  2. Fair enough. But some animals it might be hard to think of that much variety. I mean, say a PC wants to be a bear-shifter. What five moves do you grant them?

  3. Climb a tree

    Immobilise in a bear hug

    Ignore a forceful blow

    Roar to get everyone’s attention

    Rend with claws

    Basically you have 3 moves already when it’s your favourite form. GM and player each add one more. That can be done

  4. Don’t forget tracking. A bear has a keen sense of smell. “Catch the Scent”

    It could also charge and knock over something big – “throw your weight around”

    It could also drag/carry something – “feats of ursine strength”

  5. Animal moves are: hard to come up with on the fly but easy to come up with between sessions and with wikipedia open.

    Also, they should always be something concrete and action-y.  Not “feats of ursine strength” but “push something over” or “maul a target”.
