I predict some big boss fight vs super saiyen Julian

[Draykin]

So shapeshifting is a Gray Reyn racial ability?

[plazmastorm]

I guess now the only question is whether Julian as noticed it yet or not.

[Zarpaulus]

Well the most obvious thing that comes to mind is that dear old dad might be able to change back.

And I was thinking that the True Starist's transformations might be related to the cloak.

[Raf_Cian]

The maximum mass seems to be limited? Well that crushes the dreams of me and some of the taurs in the room.

Oh, and yes. I do agree that this is totally connected to the so called "true power of the goddess" that the True Starist were wielding.

I do think we need to hold off on calling it a red racial ability. Check with some arctic or fennic fox mages first... there are arctic fox mages, right?

[Zeo Fawx]

I have a feeling that's EXACTLY what Lucian is about to say.

[Generic Meatbag #14]

Calling scene change.

[Aira Fox]

Cue foreboding tune. *Dun-dun-dun!*

[Selena Hallore]

So, the Reds cannot shapeshift and yet they are still effected by the power of that staff. I wonder who created the staff, and I wonder what it's purpose was originally.

Kind of a shame that the Reds cannot shapeshift at will, but perhaps this power affords the Reds a different ability.

Now that Lucien can shapeshift himself and other people, shouldn't he change the Queen back to normal, she might give him a title as a reward like, I dunno, Lord of the Elderwood.

[ChaseTheFox]

Lucian seems kinda eager to try out this new power of his, don't you think?

[Zarpaulus]

I'd think Lucian has that by birthright now that Julian is banished.  Of course, the Queen would be in her rights to strip it from their family, and I suspect that many of the Greys consider Lucian a traitor or something.

Perhaps shapeshifting is so contrary to the teachings of the Lady of the Stars that a religious Red like Sierra can't even imagine doing it.  Her faith blocks her from seeing "the cloak" that Lucian describes, but also gives her the power to see the aura of the staff as something evil.

The True Starists--at least the cute pope--seemed to have the power to transform.  That may have been one of the "demonic" powers that they gained by completely renouncing the Lady of the Stars.

Renounce?  I thought the True Starists were fanatical followers of the Lady of the Stars who rejected the Queen's claim for some reason.

And the staff Julian used has a certain resemblance to the church's iconography.

Yes, you're right.  I forgot the "TRUE POWER of the Lady of the Stars" line.
My point is still the same:  transformation may be a "demonic" power (worse than guardian spirits) for orthodox Red believers.
