Transformation lasts a number of rounds equal to 1/4 character level. I know this is not very balanced and would encourage any help or comments ps. sorry about the mess I made of the table, could someone send me a private message telling me how to even the rows out?

He could use this power like a barbarian's rage. It could be improved on once every 5 levels. He'd start with a minor transformation, you know, claws and fangs, than get medium transformation that gives him the additional breath weapon, and finally, major transformation gives him wings. His claw and fang damage would improve like a monk's unarmed attack, and so would his breath weapon. I actually think it might be too powerful to be a base class. Let me know what you think!

Honestly, I don't think that Transform fits with the model of bloodlines, particularly with monsters that aren't natural shapechangers. This would make sense with lycanthropes or such... I think this would work better in a PrC. You could do a shortened version of Dragon Disciple that gains transform rather than a permanent change.
