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.
- If you're new to the sphere, we strongly recommend you read this Changeling the Dreaming Primer before proceeding further. This will give you an idea what to expect.
- Title cannot be taken in chargen above 1. Any increases are at staff discretion post approval.
- Sidhe (both varieties) are open ONLY at staff discretion.
- KinFae (Kithain + Kinfolk) are currently closed as of June 2021.
- 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.
- Commoners can enter houses. To begin as a member of a house, you need to follow the same rules as a Sidhe; you need to either be sponsored into an existing household or come in with 3+ new characters (who can also be of the household).
Choose Concept, Court (set as both Faction and Court), Legacy Seelie, Legacy Unseelie, House (if any), Seeming and Kith
- House rule: When open, Autumn Sidhe (C20) are allowed and are listed as such on +sheet; Arcadian Sidhe are just "Sidhe" on +sheet
- Shadow Court: set Faction = Unseelie, Court = Shadow
Birthrights: If your kith birthrights and/or house boon include an attribute or ability bonus, don't add it yourself, ask staff to set a +effect instead.
