Because the listed ability bellow is an Su would it stacks with wild shape? The prestige class it comes from is geared for druids if that matters. Also if a prestige class has a racial requirement of being an elf I would have to guess that a half elf does not qualify, right?
Channel Past Incarnation (Su)
At 2nd level, Brightness Seekers establish a mystical connection with their previous lives spent as simple creatures of the forest or field. Once per day, a Brightness Seeker may spend 1 hour meditating to manifest one of the special qualities detailed below. This special quality remains for 1 day or until the Brightness Seeker changes form or dismisses it.
Bite and claws (1d6 points of damage each)
Blindsense 30 ft. (sound-based, like a bat)
Darkvision 60 ft.
Scent
Temperature-adapted (as endure elements)
Thick hide (+3 natural armor bonus to AC)
Waterborn (swim speed 40 ft., can breathe water and air)
Wings (average maneuverability, fly speed 40 ft.)
This is the important bit of rules regarding Polymorphy abilities (of which wildshape is one)
While under the effects of a polymorph spell, you lose all extraordinary and supernatural abilities that depend on your original form (such as keen senses, scent, and darkvision), as well as any natural attacks and movement types possessed by your original form. You also lose any class features that depend upon form, but those that allow you to add features (such as sorcerers that can grow claws) still function.
So you only lose SU abilities that are body-specific. I would argue that all the aforementioned qualities are body-specific and thus you cannot combine them.
Basically the power is like wildshape lite. Thus it wouldn't work together with wildshaping. The ability even indicates that it ends when the character changes form.
Now could you change form and then use this? No, not likely since polymorph spells have the added bonus of preventing additional body modifications while the polymorph is ongoing. That's how I read it.
I thought something like that might be the case :( hoping that the Su might bypass some of the usual restrictions.
could I get a second to this guys ruling?
