Bonus Actions

Shapechanger. The kaftar can use its action to polymorph into a hyena, into the last Humanoid that it killed, or back into its true form, which is a hyena-humanoid hybrid. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying is worn by its new form (humanoid or hybrid form) or merges into its hyena form. Its statistics are the same in each form, except for any bonuses granted by equipment, such as armour.  It reverts to its true form if it dies.
