With so many interested in being GM/co-GM maybe we should try to come up with something as a group plot-wise.

Magic Magnum, Taguel were shape-shifters in Awakening. They were vastly different in that they only fight in their shifted form and the appearence was that of a large feral rabbit. They attack and transform using power they derive from a special stone they equip. They cannot defend themselves at all in human form. Like the Laguz they retain some of the physical characteristics of the beast they transform into while in human form. Maneketes are pretty much exactly the same, except they turn into small dragons. Manaketes also appeared in many games, and have been known to either possess small wings or red eyes. The Manaketes in Awakening are a bit of an exception, varying in appearence but showing no dragon-like traits.
