Teach someone who doesn’t have the Pattern how to shape shift.
(Note - the first tier skill of shapeshift can now be taught as a ‘teachable’ skill like any other- make that and teaching roll both. Like all other teaching skills, you can try to teach up to two PC’s at once. Note, only DORA’s may learn this skill unless some special shit is going on.
There is no x2/d for this skill, just like normal teaching.
Note that if you teach shapeshifting to someone else, that does NOT make it suddenly a 'teachable skill' for others - just for the person/creature/strange alien who has this power.

Isn't it a necessary prerequisite to have walked Pattern/Logrus to be able to do this? What's the reasoning for being able to teach it to someone who hasn't?

Not necessary to walk Pattern to get the ability to shapeshift. Illogical to try to get Logrus without having the ability to expertly shapeshift. The reasoning? I'll let you decide that - there are several potential reasons.

Actually, yeah. If you need shape shifting in order to walk Logrus, you wouldn't be able to get it if you need to have walked it as a prerequisite. And it doesn't make much sense to have to have walked the counterpart (Pattern). I just realised this has been a thing already for a long time. Just having it posted up confused me.

Roll this skill + teaching to impart the knowledge (usual one try of teaching per day).

Wait. So this is a completely separate skill now or? Because before it used to just be Teaching + Small shape shift.

For people who do not have Pattern, it's harder. (Reflected by this new skill needing to be used). You teach them very differently.

Have rewritten it as even in Logan's second version it has what looks to me like conflicting info as to which skill you roll against.
Teach someone who doesn’t have the Pattern how to shape shift.
Using this skill and teaching, you are now able to teach the Shapeshifting Major Power to someone who has not walked the Pattern/Logrus. Note, only DORAs may learn shapeshifting unless some special shit is going on. As with other teaching, this is once a day and you can try to teach up to two PC’s at once.
For each person you are trying to teach, if you make a successful teaching roll and then a successful roll against this skill, the student learns the first tier skill of shapeshifting.
There is no x2/d for this skill, just like normal teaching.
Note that someone who learns Shapeshifting and has not walked the Pattern/Logrus is unable to train others in it.

If people learn this first tier, but haven't walked the Pattern/Logrus, can they still gain more skills if they crit it?
