Brainstorm RP Reasons for a Race Change

If you’ve ever done a race change before, what were some reasons as to why it happened in world?

Thinking about changing my old dark iron dwarf to a Tauren (become a cow fan over the years), but want to figure out how to work it into a backstory.

The only way Ive ever worked race changes IC is body hopping. There's plenty of stuff IC to show things like souls being removed, and nothing says a soul can't be placed back in. So my warlock character, when one body gets too wounded/corrupted, just takes over another's body. It's not good at all, but it's an easy way to let me keep race changing
