I'm thinking about playing a natural weretiger, but I don't like the fact that you trade player levels and don't progress normally. An easy way to avoid this is is to take the skinwalker race, but then I get no real animal form. In wayfinder 13 there is a feat, but we prefere official paizo...
This animal form is the main reason for playing a natural weretiger.. Therefor I have another topic already on gaining a animal shape by class. But I also wonderd if there aren't any other options. So this question is explicit to becoming an beast but not due to wildshape like abilities :-)
Can it be done by magic items? A wish? A reward from a campaign? Allow it as a custom race created with the advanced race guide? any other option?
Of course there are magic items. Starting with a scroll of beast shape I. There's a thread which goes for dozens of pages based on the uses someone found for the ring of seven lovely colors. Aside from that ring and the cloak of the manta ray they tend only to last for 10 minutes a day or less though.
I'm sure you could do it with a custom race. That's not really more official than a wayfinder though.

Hmm.
- Kitsune can take Fox Shape to turn into a fox at-will with unlimited duration.- Getting a buddy to cast Polymorph Any Object on you would be a permanent solution, but I think you might also end up with tiger intelligence. That one's going to be GM call.
- Magic items will only give you limited duration, and the Skinwalker item that lets you change is only Beast Shape I (only does small or medium, where a tiger is large). There's the lion cloak, but that's the closest there is.
- Wish and campaign rewards are going to be up to the GM, unless Wish is just duplicating Polymorph Any Object.
