Yeah, if you want a particularly powerful shapeshifted form, it's going to cost you a lot, requiring a higher base refresh component to the campaign's power level in order to make it a viable PC (i.e., with net positive refresh after paying for the powers).

Also keep in mind that what we're talking about is STARTING refresh levels for a campaign. Characters are going to grow over time, just as Harry has, and one of the ways they can grow is in terms of their raw power potential (Refresh level).

TheMouse:
Out of curiosity, what is the assumed rate of Refresh increase? A point every 10 sessions? Every 20 sessions? Or is it more of a "when you feel like it" type thing?

Bosh:
I might be wrong but I think that when your character advances you can either gain skills, stunts or refresh.

Stunts cost Refresh. Logically, that would seem to imply that Stunts are not their own form of advancement, but a result of Refresh advancement.
