Transformations?

I'm not sure I get the question, but dragons will transform if their human shape is killed. Damage carries over into dragon shape. If you are fighting in an enemy dominion this might be risky. When you transform your hitpoints will be perhaps at 20% of the basic HP of a dragon. If the mage shape got hit by a cyclops wielding a heavy weapon the dragon might get killed instantly as the damage is enough to take out the mage and the dragon HP.

I',m not sure, but transformations on other shapeshifters might work in the same way. There is also a possibility that a shapeshifter transforms when surviving a strike (this might hold true for skinshifters). Lamias work in the same way as dragons.

Mounts that loose their riders do not get damage when their rider is killed (I believe).

* edit: turns out that skinshifters and mounts work the same way as dragons.

Now that I see the explanation and examples, it sounds like a very very cool feature.
