Tanuki Shapeshifting is the general name given to a set of 16 abilities that tanuki can use. These abilities require the use of a special resource called Tanuki Balls.
Tanuki Balls
The special resource required to perform these shapeshifting techniques is known as Tanuki Balls, often shortened to TB. The amount of TB currently held by a tanuki counts as a statistic.
Any newly-generated tanuki, either player characters or NPCs, should start with 3 TB. There are three methods to obtain more TB.
- The simplest and the safest method is to simply wait until Daily Reset; tanuki regenerate 1 TB on Daily Reset for free.
- The "soft" generation method works during Resting. Tanuki have an extra option; they can select the number of day periods to use for resting, and choose to assign each day period to either sleeping normally (which heals Fatigue, as normal) or to meditation (which regenerates 1 TB per day period).
- The "hard" generation method consists of instantly converting life energy (in the form of Nutrition, Hydration and Blood) in exchange for immediate TB. A tanuki can burn 500 ntri, 200 wtr and 1 Blood to generate 1 TB. This process is instantaneous, but cannot be done during combat.
Shapeshifting abilities
An ability can be cast at any time outside of combat, or during the tanuki's turn when in combat. In the latter case, casting an ability is instantaneous (as long as the tanuki has enough TB), and does not end the turn. Multiple abilities (or multiple instances of the same ability) can be chained at the same time as well, as long as there is enough TB to spend.
