The Tiger Were

     A tiger were is an intelligent Tiger that is capable of assuming the form of a man, or a hybrid form of the two. The Tiger were has a single form that it is most comfortable in, and can maintain indefinitely. The other two forms require concentration and can only be held for limited periods. A Tiger were has difficulties learning from new experiences and thus looses 10% of all experience gained.
     Statistics for Tiger weres are generated as normal characters and are adjusted by the form they take.

     As stated Tiger weres may not stay in their second and third forms indefinitely. To do so is taxing and may only be held for a certain amount of time.
          Forms

                        number of turns the form may be held.

     Tiger      Weres may be any class, and are capable of regular speech in any of the three forms.
