There are many classes and ancestries in Pathfinder Second Edition to be a part of. Which combo would you be if you could both choose for yourself?

For class I would pick to be either the Druid class or the Summoner class. The Druid one is due to its collection of shapeshifting feats and spells as well as its generalized nature based magic. I like shapeshifting as a concept, and usually this class in TTRPGs is based around that as well as having some nature magic to spare. You ever heard that "the power of nature is impossible to resist" before? Though annoyingly in game the shapeshifting feats take more than all the slots if you want maximum shapeshifting capabilities and variety. The Summoner one is because I could have a sunflower monster, which I imagine would be something like Blossomon from Digimon, or a magical beast such as a stegosaurus, a giant skunk, or a giant vulture on my side. It would be cool to have a friend in the form of one of my favorite flowers or animals. Then on top of this I still have some magical power myself... not a lot of spell slots but I have some still.

For ancestry, if the ancestry feats were based on their abilities and habits, the human ancestry would be me because there's a feat they can learn that grants them an archetype for the other class I wanna be. That means I could have both advanced shapeshifting powers as well as the ability to summon a beast or plant monster friend. I would be of the beastkin heritage because then I could be like a humanoid skunk, vulture, whale, or stegosaurus too; it also means I have some deeper ability to have animal like abilities such as a larger body, refined scent and sight in darkness, and maybe the ability to fly or dig better.

If I ran on free ancestry rules the extra feats would likely go towards having a familiar and also an animal companion... which would make me kinda like a walking zoo. Maybe I can be that guy who's a skunk man that turns into various animals, has a sunflower monster that's his friend, and also has a vulture familiar and a skunk companion.
