Tanuki Village Hero
Creature 1 (uncommon) — humanoid, tanuki
A tanuki village hero is a firefighter, monster slayer, peacekeeper, and altruist. Village heroes are elected by community vote; while the village hero sometimes grumbles that it's a lot of responsibility for a single tanuki to bear, the community insists there's no higher honor than to be trusted with their well-being. Tanuki are an ancestry of humanoids resembling raccoons or canids who live primarily in Minkai, in Tian Xia, though they are also found in Hwanggot and the successor states of Lu

Change Shape (concentrate, polymorph, primal) — The tanuki takes on the form of a mundane raccoon dog. This makes them Tiny and gives them a +2 status bonus to their Stealth modifier, but they can't make Strikes.
Change Shape
Tricky Throw (polymorph) — The tanuki winds up and puts their everything into a throw. They make a dart Strike at one enemy within 40 feet. If the Strike is unsuccessful, the tanuki falls Prone. If the Strike is successful, they really did put everything into the throw, having transformed into the dart the moment they threw it. The tanuki disappears from the space they threw from, appears in a space adjacent to the enemy and makes a kama Strike against said enemy, who's Off-Guard to the attack.
