Fully Transformed, Changes Complete: full feathers with an iridescent sheen along his chin, jaw, and neck, dark color and shift to scales on his hands complete with curved claws, nesting instinct, pointed ears, pointed teeth, gold eyes, sharpened eyesight, head feathers, hollow bones, digitigrade legs with taloned feet, elongated arms, hunger

Extraneous Changes that aren't immediately obvious: nictitating membrane maybe, weather prediction, soothing voice, weakness to electricity

Also wind magic that is naught but a gentle draft except during fog, where Shulk can surround himself in his own personal maelstrom. Could probably pull off more if he practiced with it too, though chances to practice obviously come irregularly.

Also bc it's funny to me, he's lost an inch in height since gaining his bird legs, so now he really does match Palutena's description for him in Smash, standing at 5 feet 6 inches tall.

side note: plumage and wing shape are like a lammergeier's, colors are from the Protective Torquidon/Tokilos fam of birds on Bionis

behavior and additional things: his rune from the mountain god is the "nin" Japanese kanji symbol from the Monado, located on the left side of his chest; partially based on a vulture, and thus borrows from their eating habits aka he eats bones by swallowing them whole unless theyre too big, in which case he breaks them to get at the marrow; articulate feet means he'll use them to pick things up sometimes; is constantly tending to a nest constructed from scrap metal and his own feathers; has a very poor sense of smell and therefore is unaffected by terrible odors, since yknow carrion is pretty nasty WHICH ALSO DULLS HIS SENSE OF TASTE /Fiora was right all along; enjoys playful flying chases AS OF DECEMBER I THINK HE'S ALSO MISSING HIS RIGHT EYE WHICH WAS STABBED OUT BY III IMPORTANT!! DONT FORGET!!!

inventory [on person and at home]: a nazar from Stan he keeps hooked on his shorts, a reindeer hat from Yuya (and Yuma), a beat up book bag he got on arrival, dark curtains/jar of glowing mushrooms/notebook/card with art of shade self/stuffed dragon from Loki
