==Also Called==
*Glashtan Mimicry/Physiology
*Glashtyn Mimicry/Physiology
*Glashan Mimicry/Physiology
==Capabilities==
Users of this power can take on the powers of or become Glashtyn, mythical water-goblins from the folk tales of Manx and are often envisioned as horse-like creatures that were prone to shape-shifting (often becoming a hybrid of human and horse). Like many water-horses, they were dangerous to humans and had an especially nasty habit of harassing lone women.
However, like many mythical creatures there are variants of Glashtyn that are not seen as malevolent, some are even seen as helpful spirits but a great many are still feared due to the unpredictable nature of fairy folk.
Off note is there are two distinct types of Glashtyn, one of which is a bull rather than a horse. This is likely due to two distinct fairies being merged into one in later tales (as is common in folklore).
