Hit Dice
A forceful shifter uses d10s in place of d8s for its Hit Dice.
Base Attack Bonus
A forceful shifter’s base attack bonus from shifter levels is equal to their shifter level. This replaces a shifter’s normal base attack bonus.
Diminished Magic
A forceful shifter is considered a Low-Caster rather than a Mid-Caster. If she possesses a shifter class feature that would grant a caster level equal to her class level with a sphere, she is instead considered a Mid-Caster in that sphere.
This alters the shifter’s casting.
Form of Choice
When a forceful shifter would gain the quick transformation class feature, she may instead choose to gain either Eternal Transformation or Transformation as a bonus feat. If she already possesses either of these feats, she must immediately retrain them for no cost.
This replaces quick transformation. When combined with the martial shifter archetype, the Forceful Shifter gains the form of choice feature at 2nd level instead of 1st.
Wiki Note: Form of choice is an optional ability and does not make the Forceful Shifter incompatible with archetypes that replace quick transformation such as the Paragon Shifter.
