Shapeshifter knowledge is heavily suppressed by system governments to prevent rogue citizens from seeking them out, as well as to not incite panic among paranoid citizens If a player is playing a Shapeshifter, they are wrong.
Overview
Races that may be able to change their physical appearance are in theory possible, but NPC-only and extremely rare. They are for story events. Players must go through other sorts of processes to change their appearance, medical in nature, and can’t technically be ‘shapechangers’ in the usual sense.
Shapechangers within the clusters are usually incredibly anti-social and aggravated towards political civilizations due to concepts of “Self Identity” and aim to harm colonies and cities when they are able to. Shapechangers are system wide, considered foreign terrorists, simply due to their uncanny ability to slip unknown to the sides of major political members or high ranking scientific and military personnel. There may be shapechangers among populations, but they would NEVER let a normal citizen know.
