recently i had an idea for a magical girl style game, that's set on modern-day earth, but using #Pathfinder2e / #Starfinder2e rules!
the idea is, that every player character has 2 character sheets:
one is their mundane self. a low-level human who might have some good athletics or lore skills, but no supernatural abilities.
and then the transformed self, which is their full #PF2e / #SF2e character, and is most likely another ancestry entirely!
somehow this intrigues me a lot! ^^

@risa Interesting idea. Maybe, instead of changing level, you could make certain feats and skills form-restricted? Break out Free Archetype?
(I made a Magical Girl build by adding Vigilante onto Witch, but that's not quite dramatic enough for what you want)
@SilverGM i get you, but i kinda prefer the idea that the mundane form is essentially an npc statblock that doesn't change much. meanwhile the magical form gets stronger and stronger ^^
