		+
		+	Assume Form -- the ability to shift one's form.
		+
		+	This power allows one to assume alternate forms, with various capabilities and drawbacks. A list of forms can be viewed with the command help [[Synodia Lykouros Forms]]. <br>To assume a desired form, '''simply will yourself to assume your <form> form'''.

-	about when the subtleties of Gnosis are fused with the raw force of Rage.
-	Following is a list of powers which may be used by Lupines, along with a
-	numerical quantification of the level of Gnosis and Rage required for the use
-	of each. Employment of these powers requires the expenditure of spiritual
-	energy; the discovery of precisely how much spiritual energy is something one
-	must undertake for oneself.
