//Modeled after Fast Wildshape feat - You gain immunthe ability to bleed, paralysis, poison, sleep effects, and stunning.
In addition, you can channel the mighty powers of prime elements into an aura that grants you and nearby allieuse wild shape as a special benefit.
Projecting an aura is a swift action, and you can only project one aura at a time. An aura remains in effect until you use a free action to dismiss it or you activate another aura in its place. You can have an aura active continually; thus, an aura can be in effect at the start of an encounter even before you take your first turn.
Unless otherwise noted, your aura affects all allies within 30 feet (including yourself) with a line of effect to you. Your aura is dismissed if you become unconscious or are slain, but otherwise, it remains in effect even if you are incapable of acting.
The bonus granted by your aura begins at +2 and increases with +1 for every three levels beyond the 2nd. You may only select an element of your chosen domain.
