Revised Oozemorph (Shifter Archetype)

While most shifters are trained in druidic traditions that allow them to tap into animalistic powers, others look instead to the simplest forms of life for inspiration. Known as oozemorphs, these shifters focus on the ooze—a form of life as simple in construction as it is dangerous in combat. While some shifters consider the oozemorph to be unsettling or even vile, these shifters merely embrace a stranger form of life than most. They are not inherently evil, yet they are often misunderstood by druidic circles and these circles’ shifter champions.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency
An oozemorph is proficient with all simple weapons and light armor.

This replaces a shifter’s normal weapon and armor proficiencies.

Compression (Ex)
An oozemorph gains compression as per the universal monster rule. This ability can be used regardless of the current form the oozemorph has taken.

Fluidic Body (Ex/Su)
(Ex):An oozemorph’s base form is not that of her race but rather that of a protoplasmic blob that has the same volume and weight. An oozemorph treats her creature type as both ooze and her base creature type from her race for the purposes of effects targeting creatures by type (such as bane weapons and a ranger’s favored enemy). In this form, the oozemorph is immune to critical hits and precision damage and can’t be flanked. However, she has no magic item slots and she cannot benefit from armor; hold objects; speak; or use any magic item that requires activation, is held, or is worn on the body.

An oozemorph reverts to this formless state whenever she is unconscious or in an area of antimagic. This is treated as a polymorph effect.

(Su:)A number of times per day equal to half her level (minimum 1), an oozemorph can assume a humanoid form as a move action. This transformation is identical to alter self, except the oozemorph can maintain the form for a number of hours equal to her level. Each hour after this duration, the oozemorph must succeed at a DC 15 Fortitude save or revert back to her fluidic body until she rests for at least 8 hours. This save DC increases by 1 for each additional hour spent maintaining the form.

At 8th level, the oozemorph can treat this ability as beast shape I, and at 15th level, she can treat this ability as beast shape II or giant shape I.

Ending this transformation at any time reverts the oozemorph back to her ooze form and renders her fatigued for a number of minutes equal to the number of hours she maintained the form.

This replaces, wild shape, and shifter aspect.

Morphic Weaponry (Ex)
An oozemorph can create a number of natural weapons to fight with from any portion of her body, regardless of her current form. At 1st level, as a move action, an oozemorph can form two primary natural attacks that each deal 1d6 points of bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage, chosen by the oozemorph when she forms them. An oozemorph can change the damage type of any number of her natural weapons as a swift action. An oozemorph gains one additional primary natural attack at 6th level and another at 15th level.

At 6th level your weapons count as Magical weapons and ignore DR/cold iron and DR/silver in addition you gain the ability to select a new style of morphic weapon, a grabbing mophic weapon, on a successful attack with this grabbing morphic weapon the attack deals no damage but have the grab monster quality. At 11th level Your natural attacks damage Die Increases to 1d8. At 13th level You may choose two types of damage,(bludgeoning and piercing)At 17th level There critical multiplier becomes ×3. At 19th the morphic weapons ignore DR/adamantine and DR/—.

The total number of natural attacks an oozemorph has at any given time includes those gained via her current form. For example, an 8th-level oozemorph who has taken the form of a wolf with beast shape I has a bite attack as part of that form; she can create only two additional natural attacks via morphic weaponry, for a total of three attacks available to her at that level. If the oozemorph later reverts to a humanoid form with no natural weapons, she can instead create three morphic weapons.

This replaces shifter claws.

Ooze Empathy (Ex)
An oozemorph gains the shifter’s wild empathy class feature, but she can use it only to influence the attitude of oozes with an Intelligence score of 2 or lower. An oozemorph can use this ability on mindless oozes; when she does so, she imparts a modicum of intellect to the ooze to allow it to respond to her commands.

This alters wild empathy.

Damage Reduction (Ex)
At 2nd level, an oozemorph gains DR 4/slashing while unencumbered and either wearing no armor or wearing light nonmetal armor. This damage reduction increases by 2 at 4th level and every 4 levels thereafter, to a maximum of DR 14/slashing at 20th level.

This replaces defensive instinct.

Clinging Ooze (Ex)
At 4th level, when in her natural form, an oozemorph gains a climb speed of 10 feet.

At 18th level, when in her natural form, The climb speed increases to 20 feet

This replaces woodland stride and a thousand faces.

Ooze Resistances (Su)
At 6th level, when in her natural form, an oozemorph gains a +2 bonus to saves vs poison, sleep effects, paralysis, polymorph, and stunning. At 11th level, this bonus becomes a +4. At 16 level, this bonus becomes +6.

In addition the oozemorph gains 1 fire resistance, this improves to 2 fire resistance at 9th level, 3 fire resistance at 12th level, 4 fire resistance at 15th level and finally 5 fire resistance at 18th level, some might call this a firey resistance.

This replaces Shifter’s fury

Ooze Aspact (Su)
At 9th level, when in her natural form and for 1 min per oozemorph level, The oozemorph gains a +2 enhancement bonus to Constitution score. At 14th level, the bonus increases to +4, and at 19th level it increases to +6.

This replaces Chimeric aspect

Greater Ooze Aspact (Ex)
At 14th level, when in her natural form, the Swallow Whole (Ex) universal monster quality. The swallowed creature takes 2d6 acid each round it remains inside of the oozemorph. At level 19 the acid damage becomes 3d6. The ac of the stomach is 10 + ¼ oozemorpth level + natural armor. The hp of the stomach is 1/10 of the oozemorpths Hp

This replaces Greater chimeric aspect

Ooze Ascension (Ex)
At 20th level the oozemorph has learned the ways of the ooze. The Oozemorph gains immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, and stunning. The oozemorph no longer needs to sleep but can do so to regain spells. The Oozemorph in her natural form may speak.

This replaces final aspect and Can’t be swapped out with other capstones.

This is Probably a Hat?
Benefit: You may wear any type of slotted item as a head item, this bypasses your ability to not be able to activate items but only for the head item you're wearing.

Normal: Oozemorphs can't wear any items or activate magical items.
