Important notes

  • We are in the process of converting everything to Changeling 20th Anniversary. If you find something that has not been updated, open a +request so staff can look into it. Anything listed here is still under review.
  • We DO NOT use Changeling: The Enchanted here. Most of it is superseded or overlapped by old entrenched house rules. Some individual bits and pieces have been adapted.
  • Sidhe (both varieties) is available only at staff discretion. (as of 7/6/22)
  • Shadow Court is currently closed.
  • Kiths we will approve are limited to the 13 Common ones at this time. Any others are at staff discretion only.
  • The Seelie and Unseelie Court are not deadly enemies. They have philosophical differences, and individuals may dislike each other individually, but as groups they still work together and it isn't a big deal. Their real enemies are (a) the Dauntain and other forces of Banality, and (b) the Shadow Court.
  • Multiclassing (e.g. kinain + kinfolk) is available only at staff discretion. (as of 7/6/22)
    • Existing multiclass kinain should be careful about spreading yourself too thin. If most of your time and energy is spent elsewhere, then the changeling sphere probably won't spend a lot of their time and energy trying to include you.

Choose Concept, Heritage (set as Kith for code reasons), Legacies (Seelie/Unseelie)

  • Legacies: Kinain do not really differentiate between Courts like Kithain do. You can pick two legacies if that are Seelie, or two that are Unseelie. Codewise - set them as Legacy Seelie and Legacy Unseelie, and then set a +note to state you picked two Seelie or two Unseelie for completeness.
  • House rule: When open, Autumn Sidhe (C20) are allowed and are listed as such on +sheet; Arcadian Sidhe are just "Sidhe" on +sheet
    • 'Autumn Sidhe kinain' indicates that your closest known kithain relative(s) are Autumn Sidhe

Select one of heritage's birthrights and set a +note about that

  • If it's an attribute bonus, don't add it yourself, ask staff to set an +effect instead

  • Kinain do not have a fae mien, but can use a &faedesc and say something like "People with Kenning can tell this is a Kinain."
