| CHANGELING Les changelins sont issus d'unions entre des doppelgangers et des humanoïdes dans un passé lointain. Éventuellement, leurs descendants sont devenus la race des changelins. Comme les Férals, ils sont une race unique qui se reproduit fidèlement. Contrairement aux Férals, ils n'ont pas de communauté ni de culture distinctes en tant qu'espèce. Pendant la majeure partie de leur histoire, ils ont vécu dans des colonies humanoïdes, souvent méprisées et rarement à l'aise. Cette dispersion des populations sans centre culturel central a conduit à une variété de techniques d'adaptation, exprimées différemment par chacune des trois principales philosophies changelin. | |

| CHANGELING Changelins originated from unions between doppelgangers and Humanoïdes in the distant past. Eventually, their descendants became the changelin race. Like Férals, they are a unique race that breeds true. Unlike Férals, they have no distinct community and culture as a species. For most of their history, they have lived in Humainoid settlements, often mistrusted and rarely at ease. This scattering and dispersion of populations with no central cultural focus has led to a variety of coping techniques, expressed differently by each of the three major changelin philosophies. | CHANGELING Changelins originated from unions between doppelgangers and Humanoïdes in the distant past.

| Members of most other races have a clear answer to the question “Who am I?” Nains are clever with stone, stable, and skillful against Gobelins and Géants. Elves are graceful and observant. Half-orcs are strong and gruff. Each of the civilized races has a sense of belonging and the comfort of the society of others like them. They are accepted by and accepting of others of their kind. Not so with changelins. The mutability of changelins means that they have no one clear place in the world. Most changelins live scattered among communities dominated by other races. These other races view them with suspicion. While a minority group with a stronger sense of self might react to this prejudice by banding together and forming a strong community of their own, changelins are anything but unified. Many changelins view each other with suspicion, too, and are often prejudiced against their own kind. Roleplaying Application: Changelins have no preset place in society. They feel driven to adopt another race’s persona, create multiples of their own, or find out what roles fate and destiny intend for them. Almost all changelins hold to one of three philosophical viewpoints and see themselves as passers, becomers, or reality seekers. You should choose one of these philosophies during character creation. It can provide guidance in handling many situations. When considering others of their kind, changelins tend to have more stereotypes and prejudices than even the most opinionated of species. They tend to be very dismissive of changelins who have different mindsets from their own. Changelins judge each other harshly and with little tolerance. | Members of most other races have a clear answer to the question “Who am I?” Nains are clever with stone, stable, and skillful against Gobelins and Géants.

| Les membres de la plupart des autres races ont une réponse claire à la question « Qui suis-je ? » Les Naïns sont habiles avec la pierre, stables et habiles contre les Gobelins et les Géants. Les elfes sont gracieux et observateurs. Les demi-orques sont forts et bourrus. Chacune des races civilisées a un sentiment d'appartenance et le confort de la société d'autres comme eux. Ils sont acceptés et acceptent les autres de leur espèce. Ce n'est pas le cas des changelins. La mutabilité des changelins signifie qu'ils n'ont pas de place précise dans le monde. La plupart des changelins vivent dispersés dans des communautés dominées par d'autres races. Ces autres races les regardent avec suspicion. Alors qu'un groupe minoritaire avec un sens plus fort de soi pourrait réagir à ce préjugé en se regroupant et en formant sa propre communauté forte, les changelins sont tout sauf unis. De nombreux changelins se regardent également avec suspicion et ont souvent des préjugés contre leur propre espèce. Application au jeu de rôle : les changelins n'ont pas de place prédéfinie dans la société. Ils se sentent poussés à adopter la personnalité d'une autre race, à créer des multiples de leur propre race ou à découvrir les rôles que le destin leur réserve. Presque tous les changelins adhèrent à l'un des trois points de vue philosophiques suivants et se considèrent comme des passants, des devenants ou des chercheurs de réalité. Vous devez choisir l'une de ces philosophies lors de la création du personnage. Cela peut vous guider dans la gestion de nombreuses situations. Lorsqu'ils considèrent les autres de leur espèce, les changelins ont tendance à avoir plus de stéréotypes et de préjugés que même les espèces les plus opiniâtres. Ils ont tendance à être très dédaigneux envers les changelins qui ont un état d'esprit différent du leur. Les changelins se jugent les uns les autres durement et avec peu de tolérance. | |

| {{:changeling1.jpg|A male and a female changelin.}}Changelins can look like anyone at any given time though they do have a true form. Their natural look can be scary to some due to their lack of detail and distinctive features. Their skin tone is always pale, the darkest tone some have is a light grey. They have large colorless eyes and are circled by thick black rings. Their noses are small and subtle with no detail. | {{:changeling1.jpg |A male and a female changelin.}}Changelins can look like anyone at any given time though they do have a true form.

| The changelin's body structures are slender, even more so than [[:elfes|Elfes]] and border on being frail. Their hair color is most Communly a light shade of silver followed by platinum and blonde. In rarer cases, their hair can be pale shades of green, pink, and blue. Also similar to Elfes, changelins lack body and facial hair. | The changelin's body structures are slender, even more so than [[:elfes|Elfes]] and border on being frail.

| A HIDDEN PEOPLE Wherever Humains live, changelins reside also; the question is whether their presence is known. Changelins are born to one of three paths. A few are raised in stable communities where changelins are true to their nature and deal openly with the people around them. Some are orphans, raised by other races, who find their way in the world without ever knowing another like themselves. Others are part of nomadic changelin clans spread across the Cinq Nations, fam ilies who keep their true nature hidden from the sin gle-skins. Some clans maintain safe havens in major cities and communities, but most prefer to wander the unpredictable path of the god known as Le Voyageur. | A HIDDEN PEOPLE Wherever Humains live, changelins reside also; the question is whether their presence is known.

| People often think of the shapeshifting talents of the changelin as a tool for deception. But in places where changelins live openly, including Droaam and the major cities of the Five Nations, there are many practical uses for shapeshifting. Changelins have long dominated the industry of paid companionship, using their talents to fulfill fantasies. While this can be sexual, there are many other changelin companions who specialize in giving a client the opportunity to have a meal or conversation with a distant loved one, or to practice a difficult conversation with a changelin stand-in. Many artists use changelins as versatile models. Changelins can also often be found as beauticians; in addition to possessing a deep understanding of the shifting nature of appearance, a changelin can use their own form as a palette on which to perfect the look a client is aiming for. Impersonation is also a viable career. Do you need to be in two places at once? Do you want a local celebrity to appear at your child’s birthday party? Hire a changelin impersonator. The Defender’s Guild of House Deneith has recently begun training and licensing elite changelin bodyguards, capable of serving as body doubles or posing as harmless bystanders until needed. Many changelins pursue a career in entertainment. After all, a changelin with the proper shiftweave outfit can play five roles! However, House Thuranni and House Phiarlan have been accused of denying opportunities to changelins. In licensed Phiarlan companies, changelins are typically relegated to serving as understudies and stunt doubles for dragonmarked superstars. | People often think of the shapeshifting talents of the changelin as a tool for deception.
