While the Chevall may change forms between a horse and a centaur, the application of the Shape shifter to this species would be incorrect due to their sylvan/fey heritage. Instead, Chevalls are creatures of natural magic, much like Nymphs, Pixies and others of their ilk. As a horse, the Chevall may be of any colour. Likewise, in the centaur form, they appear as smaller versions of the aforementioned creature. In both forms, the Chevall can speak Common, Centaur, Sylvan, and may communicate freely with other horses.
Combat
Form change (Sp): As a free action, the Chevall may switch between the form of a centaur or that of a Light Warhorse. Statistics are listed above for both forms.
Call Horses (Su): Once per day, the Chevall can magically summon 1d3 Celestial Light Warhorses, which arrive in 1d4 rounds
Bonus Feats: All Chevall automatically have the Ride-by Attack and Trample feats (PHB 84, 86 respectively).
