I've never heard of it,but i think it would be possible.

Well I don't see it as a problem either but I thought others might. I myself have a tiger, bear, and wolf form. Some have said that when I change I have also taken a badger as my form as well but I do not know for certain.

I am hoping that I might be able to find others like me with multiple shifts so that I may learn from them how to control which shift I go into when I want to. Right now it is random.

I'm skeptical about this, to be honest. It just seems like people who want to have their fingers in a lot of pies, showing off because they think they 'like' too many different animals to declare one theriotype. I, personally, really really like big cats, I think they're fantastic and I love drawing them, I love the way they move and everything about them. But as much as I like them, I can't feel them, because its just not what I feel on the inside. On the inside I feel all-wolf, and for that reason I can't see how people can have multiple theriotypes. To have a deep, intense, personal connection with an animal that is strong enough to be therianthropy surely can't be for 3 different animals, all from different species groups. It seems like indecision, or at worst an absence of therianthropy at all.

Well ShadyHowl, how do you explain me having multiple shifts? I am curious about your explanation to this. I am studying both necromancy and wicca. yes I know it is hard when your eating what you try to ressurect, but I have been able to accomplish a stronger force of will than my shifted forms. I am studying wicca to try to learn how to control which shift I turn into(it is really irritating going into a fight wanting to turn into a white tiger and getting a badger instead). What do you suggest I do about my situation?

O.o

Saurian. To figure out why you're not getting the shift you intend, how are you trying to shift?

In Dreamtime, you control what you do by an exertion of will. But there are no "physical laws" there so you pretty much have to specify every detail that you want controlled. an analogy I often use for relationships applies here as well. If you want to grow peas in a garden, you cultivate peas. If you just plant the garden and let it grow on it's own, you shouldn't be too surprised when you get a lot more than you wanted. If you want a good relationship, you cultivate that relationship, or you'll get a lot of weeds. If you want to perform an act in Dreamtime, you cultivate that act. You don't leave things to chance because there's a lot more variety there than there is here and the weeds grow much larger and wilder. Some are maneaters......

Dude, stay away from necromancy.  Because well, its BADDD voodoo. Necromancy > Death > Afterlife> Demons etc.

Oh and I don't mean literally but If you get into that sort of thing be aware that there will be consequences if you keep trying.

Neway hope you take my advice

Does anyone have the problem of not having 1 set animal type but can change into several types of animals?

Yes, I'm going through the same thing... I love that I am the way i am but it is really hard at times...it seems we are few and far between. sad
Is it possible...i'd say yes.
Can it get confusing...i'd say most definatly.
Is it a bad thing? I'd absolutly not, and hope that people with multiple theriotypes embrace it ^_^

Much <3

I is a polywere.  I can also cameo-shift.  I think I might agree with VanZandt over there, it might just be a certain animal that we have a certain predisposition for. (not to say our favorite, I wasn't too interested in raccoons until I realized that was my theriotype)
