Moondog has a black scruffy fur, it looks like a wolf hound, it runs on all fours even though it has human hands and intelligence. You just have to image that skyrim dog has human hands out of frame.

They even have 'lick' as a spell like ability that is supposed to take away worries or something.

Moon dogs look like large (3' at shoulders) wolfhounds, but their heads are nearly human which makes them look very intelligent (and they are). Their forepaws are highly adaptable and allow them to travel bipedally or on all fours. Their fur color ranges from dark gray to deep black and their eye color is usually amber.

I would like to request that, when reviewing Augment Form, the feat be added to option-to-take for Arch Mage and Hierophant PrC levels/bonus feats. Thank you.

This man-sized mastiff strongly resembles a wolf hound with a shaggy, deep-black coat. It bears some striking humanlike characteristics, including front paws with opposable digits. Its haunting eyes resemble lustrous obsidian orbs.

https://wiki.bgtscc.net/index.php?title=Polymorphing <= This page has no mention of Augment Form feat. Did something happen to it?

Now the wiki is missing the 100% spellcasting failure.

Please bring back the Iron Golem and the Horned Devilto the Shapechange spell. Especially the Iron Golem.

Why were shapes removed, anyway? Isn't it about adding things, not taking away things from Players?

I used the Iron Golem for my character Hurgon's RP, and now that is taken away...and nothing was every asked of the Playerbase, either.

Thank you.

EDIT: I did not realize Horned Devil was renamed as a specific devil type.

The wiki has now a full detailed list of all shapes.

I take a look at the iron golem/clay golem thing.

Thank you very much! I would be puzzled with changing my character's RP in this regard.

It uses 2 spells up when you cast it?

Yesterday, after the update, Shapechange was using only 1 casting on my Spirit Shaman. However, I can imagine that if one does not cast Owls Insight beforehand, one can loss Bonus Spells from an Ability Modifier bonus decrease from the Shape.
