Alter Self (Power 2, 1 action, self, conc (1 hour)) While the spell lasts, you can manifest 1 physical transformation, swapping between them as an action. Adaptation Aquatic: you gain gills, webbed fingers, fins, etc. You can breath underwater and swim at your Speed. Arboreal: you gain Expertise with climbing, with long arms, a tail, etc. Gliding: you gain clumsy wings or flaps between wrists and ankles. You have a 2:1 glide ratio. Dashing: you gain +10' to ground movement, and +10' to horizontal jumping distance. Camouflage: grow fur, scales, etc to blend with a specific environment, becoming Skilled with Stealth while hiding there. Appearance You alter your appearance, voice, and scent within the broad range of a Medium biped. To perfectly duplicate a specific person, you must have an arcane connection to them, which is consumed when you take their form (you can resume their form any time during the duration of the spell). Natural Weapon Your unarmed melee attacks deal 1d6 with claws, fangs, spines, horns, etc. You suffer no penalty when fighting an armed enemy, and your attacks can be Short or Long range. Treat your weapons as magic, with +1 attack and damage.

Polymorph Self (5e, acks) - shapechange?

Enlarge / Reduce (Power 2, 1 action, 30', conc (1 min), one creature or object) Choose 1: Enlarge: subject increases one Size (~2x dimensions and ~8x weight). It has +A to Feats of Strength and +1d4 damage to forceful attacks. Growth halts early if there is not room for full size. Reduce: subject reduces one Size. It has +D to Feats of Strength and -1d4 damage to forceful attacks (min 1). The usual effects of Size apply to forced movement, grappling, ranged attacks, etc. The possessions of a targeted creature change with them. Dropped items return to normal size. Unwilling targets (or objects held by them) get a Vigor save to resist.
