:*'''[[Beast Soul: Weretiger]]''' (ビーストソル・ワータイガー ''Wā Taigā''): Elfman transforms his entire body into that of a [[Weretiger]], a very massive, anthropomorphous creature, possessing distinctive traits characterizing a great variety of [[Wikipedia: Feline|felines]]. In such form, he still stands on his rear legs, which, however, gain a structure similar to those of a [[Wikipedia: Feline|feline]], with his toes sprouting sharp, dark claws, not unlike those appearing on his fingers. He retains a toned and muscular physique, which, aside from the front part of Elfman's torso and the back parts of his legs, is largely covered in a series of dark spots; these, in spite of the '''Take Over'''
'
name, are more reminiscent of a [[Wikipedia: Leopard|leopard]]'s than a [[Wikipedia: Tiger|tiger]]'s. He also gains a long, messy and dark mane similar to a [[Wikipedia: Lion|lion]]'s topping his head, which sprouts a large, dark feline nose and large fauces lined up with sharp teeth. Thick, light fur grows on his lower face. Strangely enough, his ears remain human in placement and appearance, though they become elongated and extremely pointy. A mildly long, spotted feline tail ending in a dark tuft sprouts from his lower back. His Fairy Tail mark is no longer visible. Elfman's outfit also changes, with whatever type of shirt he might be wearing disappearing to leave his chest bare, and with his pants being replaced by a dark, baggy pair reaching down below his knees, possessing light edges and light belts crossing on his thighs. His feline feet are bare.
Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 278, Pages 11-12
The word ''Weretiger'' is a pun on the mythological [[Wikipedia: Werewolf|Werewolf]].

:**'''Enhanced Speed''': According to Mirajane, '''Beast Soul: Weretiger''' is a speed-type '''Take Over''', and thus allows Elfman to move faster when he employs it. It's currently unknown to what degree this form boosts his speed; however, an [[Mage|S-Class Mage]] specializing in [[Wikipedia: Martial art|martial arts]] like [[Bacchus]] was shown capable of effortlessly avoiding Elfman's melee attacks even in such state.

:*'''[[Beast Soul: Lizardman]]''' (ビーストソル・リザードマン ''Rizādo Man''): Elfman transforms his entire body into that of a [[Lizardman]], a large, anthropomorphous [[Wikipedia: Reptile|reptilian]] creature. His muscular figure is almost completely covered in [[Wikipedia: Scale (anatomy)|scales]], some of which, lined up, are shown to be particularly large, protruding and sharp. The only parts seemingly left bare are the front section of his torso and the palm of his hands. His fingers grow sharp, dark claws, similar to the ones sprouting from his toes, which become much more massive and stocky, also changing in placement, and thus making Elfman's feet similar to a reptile's rear legs. His hair is replaced by a long, messy and spiky light mane topping the top part of his head and extending to his middle back; Elfman's head itself gains reptilian features, becoming more stubby, losing a visible nose and gaining a large, protruding plate in correspondence to his forehead, topping his eyes. His Fairy Tail stamp is still visible on the flat scales covering the left part of his neck. Elfman's clothing is replaced by a pair of mildly loose, dark pants going down below his knees, held up by a belt completely composed of square studs, and sporting rectangular metal plates covered in round holes on his thighs' front parts, held there by chains.

:**'''Scales''': The scales covering Elfman's body in such state are extremely resistant, greatly boosting his defense, and their jagged outlines make attacking him unarmed dangerous: even if the opponent was to be strong enough to break the scales, their limbs would be damaged from doing so, and the effort required to break the scales itself is incredible. This '''Take Over''' form amazed [[Erza Scarlet]], and, most importantly, allowed Elfman to defeat someone as powerful as Bacchus, who was left exhausted after striking him with a barrage of blows.

'''Enhanced Durability''': Elfman possesses great constitution and durability. He was shown undergoing a barrage of Magical and physical attacks from Sol without giving up or losing the will to fight, even when he was sent crashing through a wall by Sol's strongest [[Platre Sonata|spell]].
Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 55, Pages 5-10
During his fight with Rustyrose, Elfman further demonstrated his durability, enduring many slashes from the Dark Mage's '''Jet Black Sword''', and even managing to grab onto it and hold it still while it was piercing his body;
Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 222, Pages 7-12
he was also able to stand and walk after being struck by the massive explosion generated by Rustyrose's '''[[Tower of Dingir]]''',
Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 225, Page 18
which caused a pair of sharp sticks to pierce his chest, and even carry the similarly injured Evergreen alongside him;
Fairy Tail Manga: Chapter 225, Pages 13-14
in addition, he was one of the first heavily injured Fairy Tail members shown awake and capable of standing after their respective battles, something which led to Rustyrose's defeat.
