   * **Others within a limited range can be subjected to Shift magic.** With practice and effort, a shifter can change others in the same way and subject to the same rules. The further from the caster the target is, the more difficult this becomes, and in general the target cannot be further away than five meters.   * **Others within a limited range can be subjected to Shift magic.** With practice and effort, a shifter can change others in the same way and subject to the same rules.

-Shifters have one of the highest survival rates in the world beyond the [[avishraa:community:citadel:|Citadel]], simply because - if they survive long enough to get a grasp of their powers - they can pass for ordinary takmar for long stretches of time.

It is perhaps unsurprising that many also find roles as sex workers or companions of one form or another, since they can conform themselves closely to the desires of others. In the Citadel, shifters' powers lend advantages in many legitimate occupations but are uniquely suited to few.
