Let's say, there is a Druid. He has some soulmelds shaped and really likes them, through he also likes his Wild Shape ability. He looks at his soulmelds, he looks at his Wild Shape and asks himself - "Am I able to combine them?" Okay, here's the question: Can a Druid have active Soulmelds during Wild Shape, or are the Soulmelds being supressed for the duration? The rules on Wild Shape say this: > Any gear worn or carried by the druid melds into the new form and > becomes nonfunctional. When the druid reverts to her true form, any > objects previously melded into the new form reappear in the same > location on her body that they previously occupied and are once again > functional. Any new items worn in the assumed form fall off and land > at the druid's feet. While the description on Wild Shape say this: > Soulmelds are persistent magical constructions shaped from pure > incarnum—the power of souls living, dead, and yet unborn—fused with > the meldshaper’s own essence. They resemble both long-lasting spells > and magic items in many ways, but truly are neither. Once shaped, a > soulmeld takes on a solid physical form in the shape specifi ed for > that particular meld. A shaped soulmeld acts as a normal object that > might be worn, such as boots, armor, or a robe except for the > following: they cannot be removed from the individual wearing them, > they cannot be damaged except as specifi cally noted and they don’t > have a weight (though they can restrict movement, thus giving an armor > check penalty if applicable). So, it looks like somewhat of a draw. Is there anything in RAW to solve this conundrum?
