It might be fun to be able to transform your Ogre into a Krog or transform your Orc into a Kruk Yeti. Even Shalore->Doomelf could be fun, though that would indeed necessite more of a workaround.
The lore is already there, so why not just give a choice, if picked giving a deletion of the old category and regaining of the invested points and yeah. Maybe adjust the base stats according to the difference of the races. Could be fun.

Re: Racial Transformation
I would say that the best way to do this would be similar to Parasite, where you keep your racial investment but can't put points into the tree anymore.Phantomfrettchen wrote:It might be fun to be able to transform your Ogre into a Krog or transform your Orc into a Kruk Yeti.

However, what about racial quests? Or tidbits like how turning into a Kruk Yeti would probably remove all of your past knowledge?

Re: Racial Transformation
I understand the perspective you're suggesting and this might be fun for others, but seriously: Kruk Yeti and Krog are examples where you shouldn't do this. This is supposed to mostly be a cool thing to do, rather than something that is actually powerful. I guess with Krog it'd be sorta okay from a lorewise perspective, but even there it's questionable.
