Character Creation
Character Creation follows the guidelines laid out in Changeling 20 and the OWBN C20 MET conversion Packet. Characters begin with 60xp.
Open Availability: Boggans, Eshu, Ghille Dhu, Nockers, Pooka, Redcaps, Satyrs, Sluagh, Trolls, and Sidhe of Houses Dougal, Eiluned, Fiona, Gwydion, Liam, and Scathach.
Please note that Attribute Traits, Abilities, etc granted by Birthrights and House Boons allow a Character to exceed their normal maximums (Boggans may have Crafts x6, Redcaps can have Intimidation x6, etc). In the case of Birthrights that grant Abilities such as Crafts (the Nocker Birthright, for example), only the type of Crafts chosen for the Birthright may be raised to x6, not all types of Crafts.
For other concepts, please speak with a Storyteller and have an idea of your background.
Restricted Backgrounds:
- Holdings. Freehold membership will be earned in character, at which point the Holdings background may become available.
- Title. Any PC wishing to begin with a title higher than x2 must be part of a fealty chain. Knights errant are acceptable - speak to us about some of the knightly orders! - but Squires (Title x1) should be sworn to a Knight.
- Influence. Many Influences are inherently banal - please speak to us about any Influences you may want.
- Treasure. At Character Creation, you may freely purchase one Treasure, rated between 1-5 points. Please look over the Treasure Guidelines above and have a rough idea of what you want, to discuss with staff.
Arts
Characters choose three (3) Arts at Character Creation which are their 'natural' Arts; these may be improved without a teacher. Any other Arts must be taught by another Changeling.
Restricted Arts (Commoners): Chronos, Naming, Sovereign
Restricted Arts (Nobles): Chicanery, Metamorphosis
OWBN R&U Restrictions
Please note that Chronos, Naming, and the 5th level of Spring are Coordinator Approval, and the Ghille Duh Kith are classified as Coordinator Notification by OWBN Bylaws; the Selkie Kith is classified as Rare, and requires a Council Vote.
Game Date Change

So Sarah and I have had a family thing come up on the 4th Saturday. How would everyone feel about just playing the day after, on Sunday?
Prop: Mechanics Update
April 5th, 2017
Please read this.
The Changeling Coord has proposed this as a mechanics update for the Changeling Genre. We never got a revised book, and we all know there are ways in which the Shining Host MET books are poorly written.
If you have feedback/questions, post them here. We'll try to assemble them and get someone to post them to Council.
To the Kingdom of Apples
March 25th, 2017
To the Kingdom of Apples,
Our ancient enemies have returned from the Deep Dreaming to strike at us on a day of celebration. During the coronation of the King of Grass, the Formorians took Winterhaven, the former seat of the High King. They also attempted to infect the island of Manhattan with their foul plague. This sickness twists us into the darkest mirrors of ourselves, and those infected will become thallain if not cured. However, there is a vaccination. There is a cure, for those infected. There is, above all else, hope.
I am working on a warding to protect our kingdom and welcome everyone to share their ideas as to what we can do to keep ourselves safe.
Plague and pestilence are the weapons of cowards, and they have no chance of winning. Even the youngest among us know this. We will undo all the schemes of the Formorian courts, and bind them in the deepest reaches of the Dreaming, never to return.
By my hand,
Sorcha Allaire ni Eiluned
Countess of Elms
In service to Autumn ni Fiona, Duchess of Mirrors
Game 3/25/2017: Pestilence
March 20th, 2017
Rumors from the Coronation of King Brandolf spread like wildfire across not only the Duchy of Mirrors, but the entire Kingdom of Apples: Winterhaven, the private Freehold of the long absent High King David, has fallen to Thallain - a flood which swells in spills out of New York City.
With the threat of Unseelie Fae from under the Sea, the Duchy founds itself besett on two fronts...
See you all Saturday :) Feel free to begin RP between people who went to Glitter and those who stayed home.
