I could imagine that everyso often a woodsman would exhibit the shapechange ability. They would then be exiled living on their own on the fringes of civilization. They might then form a loose group under a powerful leader such as Beorn. I could see that this ability might only affect males and so therefore you wouldn't have female beornings. Now there is as Reera said Grimbeorn which puts a kink in the theory but maybe there was a particularly brave woodswoman? If they proved themselves like Beorn to be "good" they might attract other settlers to their area but who would have to show fealty to Beorn or whomever and become non shapechanging Beornings?
I meant," said Iplsore bitterly, "what is there in this world that makes living worthwhile?" Death thought about it. "CATS," he said eventually, "CATS ARE NICE." -- (Terry Pratchett, Sourcery)
