Bodily Deregulation It’s…. Not a good look

1
You possess an augmented or inhuman body.
Used by River, Created by ShadyTradesman.
(Your specific augmentation must be physically visible in some way, but it does not need to make you appear outwardly monstrous or socially unacceptable. )

When River loses his cool, his shape shifting flesh follows his emotional deregulation. His body becomes an unstable, crawling suggestion of a living creature. Toothy maws surface and sink into his skin, clawed limbs sprout and recede, and skin gives way to a kaleidoscope of scales, fur, and feathers.

His form, as chaotic as it looks, follows his unrestrained intentions.

You are permanently and visibly transformed: in human form, his body is slightly "off" with some fingers longer than others, inverted rib cage, webbed toes, etc. You are considered to be a Sapient, Living being when targeted..

Your appendages can reach an additional 30 feet.

You can squeeze through any cracks and passageways a cat would be able to.
