"A power of transformation."
The Shapeling Arts are the arts of reshaping flesh and bone, using amber as a catalyst.[1] They were developed by Rubbery Men, but humans can also gain considerable skill.[2] The Starved Men practice the Shapeling Arts with religious fervor.[3] Rubberies, however, see human and Starved imitations as lacking, since humans cannot perceive everything they do about amber.[4]
