The ability of a being or creature to completely transform its physical form or shape. This is usually achieved through an inherent ability of a mythological creature, divine intervention, or the use of magic. Ayame's mother is a human and her father is a shapeshifter, making her a "half breed" Many strangers have questioned her unique mix and she has even met a few like herself. Being a half breed allows Ayame to fully and half transform herself, but some of these appearances have great power and can be difficult to control. While fully transformed, her mind and body are possessed but she is able to speak through them. A simple half transformation can also be done, these appearances are much easier to control since she is still human with only a few physical changes (such as ears and a tail) and also taking on their behavioral traits.
