Only games I’ve ever seen this are
- Shining Forces games
- The Banner Saga series
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance expanded its fantasy setting by having a race of half animals who could become there animal in battle for a short period of times. They were broken up into beast, bird, and dragon with dragon being the strongest. Older Fire Emblem games had a race of humanoids that could turn into dragons before but Path of Radiance greatly expanded that concept. Even though there weren’t any playable none humans in Three Houses, the monster enemies are broken into the three sub categories as path of radiance with beast, bird, and dragon and each having similar elemental weaknesses.
I just wish more modern RPGs would take advantage of fantasy races the way Shinning Forces did.
