Keep in mind that the unique shaping magic of the Shapeshifters allows them to shape EVERYTHING (from trees to rocks to flesh to water to other living beings), it is a single magic, if you have that magic, you may have extra skill in a certain area of the magic, for instance you may be an excellent tree-shaper, but you can shape everything else too, so under "magic" for your elf, you can simply put shaping-magic with extra skill in tree-shaping. If you only put rock-shaping or tree shaping under "magic", then you don't have the shaping magic, only those two.So on your elf's form under magic you have to put 'shaping-magic' if you want your elf to have it.
