Amara is...unique.
As you would expect, being from Dolanna's line, she has immunity to Lycanthropy.
But there's a little catch.
You see, Dolanna's son and Amara's father, Jevin, DID decide to become Were. He married Audrey, and Amara is the daughter of Jevin and Audrey. Everyone thought she'd be a Were-wolf like her parents, but the power of Tarrin's wish bred true down through her. She was born human, with the immunity to Lycanthropy.
What makes her different is that she's immune to Lycanthropy, but she has the POWERS of a Were-wolf without BEING a Were-wolf. It's a condition similar to Dolanna's unique ability to absorb the powers of a Were-kin, but not quite. Since she was born from two Were-wolves, it's as if she always has Were-wolf blood flowing in her veins, and the unique aspects of her parents and her heritage, combined with her aptitude for Sorcery, combined to give her this unique power.
And her ability to shapeshift extends slightly beyond the three base forms. She's learned how to control this power to the point where she can alter her facial features and the color of her hair, and change how she appears as both a hybrid and a wolf, but she's still locked into the three basic forms granted to Were-wolves. She's just learned how to change those basic forms. She can't change her height or her weight, but she can change her outward appearance.
This is one reason why she's in Wikuna. Wikuni are still very hostile to foreigners on their continent, but Amara can take her hybrid form and just look like any other wolf Wikuni. And since she can alter her features and the color of her hair and skin, she can "fit in" no matter where she goes. She has trouble in some places because she's unnaturally tall for a human female, about 6 feet, but in other places her height lets her fit right in.
but as the old saying goes 'what comes around, goes around'
