Alternate Form

A dragon changeling can assume the form of a juvenile dragon of their draconic parent's type three times per day. They keep their own HP, stats, base attack, and saves. They do not gain the caster level or AC. They do gain the frightful presence, special abilities, and spell resistance. Their natural armor increases by +4 while in this form.

Worn and held items are shifted into a nondimensional space for the length of the change, though containers fall to the ground. Worn magic armor continues to provide it's enhancement bonus to AC and any abilities. The two melee weapons with the highest enhancement bonuses each provide their enhancement bonus and abilities to one of the dragon's natural claw attacks. Enhancement bonuses, resistance bonuses, and force based armor bonuses from worn magic items continue to function. All other items no longer function and are unavailable for use.

The dragon changeling may also use alternate form to suppress any or all of its half dragon traits to appear more like its non draconic parent at will. Its wings, tail, claws, teeth/skull shape, scales, eyes, and any other appearance traits from the Half Dragon template can be suppressed in this manner. Doing so also suppresses the associated attack, natural armor, enhanced vision, ect.

The dragon changeling can remain in it's new form until it chooses to return to it's natural form. Alternate Form is a full round action.
