Uh,Sev *had* a job at the beginning of the story as a shapeshifter. Also I suspect shapeshifters would serve as the muscle in any rune writer mafias that happen to be running around. >:}

Honestly, in a place like Dhemin, where there's a whole bunch of people and therefore a decent number of runewriters, you could probably just start using it. I think if they ever standardised the symbol use, that's likely what they would do.
And keith has a major one! Shapeshifters can very easily serve as muscle, not to mention having a really enhanced ability to work with animals.

In theory, I suppose shapeshifters could just use the right-hand side... By process of elimination, if there are four main types of runewriters (or ARE THERE? Miss Reflector may indicate otherwise! dundunduuunnnn) and three have easily-correlated symbols (not that a witch would WANT to use the W), anyone sufficiently familiar with the root symbol would be able to understand. But yeah, definitely less intuitive... Also I'm not sure what sort of services a shapeshifter would have to offer aside from alchemy. Maybe finding missing people / fetching items dropped in small spaces / ...?
