Native American Legend - Skinwalker

The skinwalker is a melee magical bruiser, with high mobility and damage.

Passive: Evil Way: The skinwalker has three forms, a coyote form, an owl form, and a bear form. Each form has its own abilities and stat bonuses.

The skinwalker spawns with one stack of Shapeshifting. Each stack grants a bonus to a stat depending on the skinwalker's form, and maxes at 5 stacks. Killing an enemy god grants another stack, and all but one stack is removed upon death.

Coyote: +6% attack speed per stack.
Owl: +8% movement speed per stack.
Bear: +12 magical power per stack.

On the player's screen, they'll see a circle with three symbols on it, and transforming will turn the circle clockwise. In other words, you can't change into a specific form. If anyone has a less clumsy way to implement this, I'm all ears.

1: Transform: The skinwalker changes forms. Cooldown: 18/14/12/10/8/4 seconds. This ability is available at 1st level, and does not need ranks to use. The first cooldown (18) represents the time with no ranks.

2: Maul/Rake/Savage: The skinwalker viciously attacks an enemy, buffing his basic attacks depending on his form. Lasts 4 seconds. Cooldown: 8 seconds.

Attack damage bonus: 50/70/90/110/130 + 30% of your magical power.

Coyote: Slows enemies by 20/25/30/35/40%
Owl: Cripples enemies for .7/1/1.3/1.6/2.0 seconds
Bear: Deals 1.0/1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0% of the enemy's health as bonus damage.

3: Leap/Dive/Rush:

The skinwalker dashes/leaps/otherwise forward, dealing 80/120/160/200/240 damage + 50% of your magical power. An additional effect is applied depending on your form. Cooldown: 16 seconds.

Coyote: A non-jump leap, small delay, damage in a small radius. Reduces enemy protections by 5/10/15/20/25.
Owl: An actual jump, large delay, small damage radius, increases movement speed by 10/15/20/25/30% for 3 seconds.
Bear: A fairly slow dash, about as slow as Tyr's, dealing damage with collision and gaining 4/6/8/10/12 protections for each enemy hit this way. Breaks slows.

4: Sin Against Nature: The skinwalker transforms into a monstrous abomination, refreshing all of his cooldowns, gaining the benefits of all three forms and increasing his protections by 12/24/36/48/60. The skinwalker gains all three benefits from his forms into his abilities, and becomes immune to crown control. This form lasts 6 seconds. Cooldown: 90 seconds.

While in SAN form: Transform grants an extra stack of Shapeshifting, and his 3 becomes a fast jump, kinda like Anhur's, with a 20 foot radius. His 2 is constantly active while in this form.

Other notes: He suffers from mana problems, and while his Owl form provides good mobility, he has a pretty long cooldown on his escape.

So...is this too overpowered?

It's pretty neat. xD I like very much the shape-shifting idea. Some of the damage and effects could be reduced for a bit, but overall it's an awesome kit, in my opinion.
