Sanctaphrax:
Sorry, I'm still unclear on exactly how this works.

Could you provide an example or two?

ways and means:
Someone hits you with a control 7 power 7 fire ball  you roll discipline against it and get 8 that means you can sacrifice a go to cast a power 7 attack spell on the target of the choice (at your discipline). 

Someone hits you with a 7 shift maneuver same effect but with a 7 shift maneuver as the end result rather than an attack.

Same effect if someone hits you with an area attack (the area still hits everyone else before being swallowed.) 

Sanctaphrax:
I still don't really get it, but I guess it's not that important that I do.

As long as the people using it get it, there's no problem.

ways and means:
Basically its a power in two parts first it allows a zero stress free action "counter spell" at discipline and secondly it allows you to cast a spell without gathering the power for it because the power for it comes from the "countered" spell. 

KOFFEYKID:
How does this look?

[Family] Shifter [-4]
Description: Your shapeshifting abilities are limited to one family of creatures. For example you might only be able to shapeshift into any type of canine/feline/avian creature.
Musts: You must choose a type of creature that you can shapeshift into.
Skills Affected: Varies
Effects
Limited Multiform. You may take on nearly any form so long as it falls within the family of creatures you've chosen.
Limited Skill Shuffle. At the end of the day most cats or most dogs have the same types of skills, just in varying degrees, a tiger might have a higher might rating than a tabby cat. You may build only one alternate skill configuration, but may choose three skills which may be adjusted from form to form within that configuration.
Function Follows These Forms. You have two form points which you may use to gain temporary access to powers that make sense given your chosen family of creatures.
Extra Form Points [-]. You may purchase an extra form points at a one for one ration to refresh spent.
A Family Understanding [+1]. Your understanding of your chosen family of creatures is expansive. You may purchase the pact instincts power for free.

I made this power because if you dont want the full shifting you should get a discount. It doesn't make sense to buy the full suite if you just want to turn into cats big and small, but it still makes sense to be able to swap diminutive size (your tabby cat) for hulking (your tiger), or your strength and speed depending.
