	~~Yadda yadda blah blah~~.		Formshapers, unlike conventional mages, don't manipulate external aether into resonant patterns. Instead, they study the essential nature of forms themselves--finding the platonic ideal of a concept and then using their personal aether to replicate this concept, often in the form of a pseudo-physical object. Often, this "form" has a blue glow and looks as if it is made out of solidified light.

			Formshapers and conventional spell-casters are often at odds--the search for the ideal of the form is hampered by the twisting of aether involved in casting spells. And the level of control over one own's aether makes spells less effective against an experienced formshaper. As such, many cultures have trained formshapers as mage-killers or wardens for magically-endowed prisoners. In return, spell-casting-dominated cultures have often outlawed or strictly controlled the study of formshaping.

			=== Beast Mask ===
			A mask of aether patterned after an animal's head appears over your face, although your vision is not obstructed. While you are shaping this form, you have expertise in Animal Handling and can use that skill to influence beasts and beast-like monstrosities as if you were using a Charisma check. ''Active Effect'': As an action, roll a shaping die and choose up to half your proficiency bonus in beasts or monstrosities that can see you within 60 ft. Each target must make a Charisma saving throw against your shaping DC. On a failed save, the creatures are charmed by you for one minute and cannot attack you or your allies while charmed. If the result of the d20 is under the number you rolled on your shaping die and they fail the saving throw, they are instead turned to your side and will attack your enemies for 1 minute, although you cannot command them. After the domination effect ends, they will attempt to flee if possible, turning hostile if not. On a successful save, the targets are frightened of you until the end of their next turn and then immune to further effects from this form for 24 hours.
