#1 zombiegleemax Aug 27, 2005 16:19:22	Someone recently asked me if a druid they encountered was making a system shock roll when changing into a bear. I've always allowed druids to shapechange without making any sort of checks. Am I wrong to do this? Is the druid's shapechange the same thing as polymorphing (the latter of both I know for sure requires a system shock roll)? Does anyone here make their druids do system shock rolls when shapechanging? Thanks!
