place in your loadout. Then choose one domain to expand into.

domain at half your level or lower (rounded up).

multiclass FEature
BEASTFORM
Mark a Stress to magically transform into a creature of your tier or
lower from the Beastform list. You can drop out of this form at any
time. While transformed, you can’t use weapons or cast spells from
domain cards, but you can still use other features or abilities you
have access to. Spells you cast before you transform stay active and
last for their normal duration, and you can talk and communicate as
normal. Additionally, you gain the Beastform’s features, add their
Evasion bonus to your Evasion, and use the trait specified in their
statistics for your attack. While you’re in a Beastform, your armor
becomes part of your body and you mark Armor Slots as usual; when
you drop out of a Beastform, those marked Armor Slots remain
marked. If you mark your last Hit Point, you automatically drop out
of this form.
WILDTOUCH
You can perform harmless, subtle effects that involve nature—such

as causing a flower to rapidly grow, summoning a slight gust of wind,
or starting a campfire—at will.
