Seed: Transform

One of the common, and feared powers of sorcery is the infusion of planar energies into the caster's own body. This results in rapid transformations that becomes increasingly obvious while active, and over long periods of time may (with the Storyteller's approval) begin to cause permanent visible elements of the transformation. E.g. horns or strangely colored eyes. Upon Transformation the caster gains the chosen benefits for the rank cast and any lower ranks. Some ranks have multiple options (indicated with bullets). Upon taking these ranks, the caster must choose which option to select, and this choice may not be changed later.
