Changeling

No one truly knows where the changelings descended fronm. Some

say they are the first race, before their forms were set by the gods.
Some say they are from the blood of the storied doppelgangers.
But whatever the truth, the changelings walk among us, executing
their secretive plans and eking out an existence among the other races,
often with the truth unknown to others. They are perfect infiltrators
and spies, and have made an entire culture of cultivating personalities
and personas that they can switch between, sometimes never showing
their real face to anyone but those closest to them. And there are those
who use their abilities to their profit, taking on forms at the request of
others, working as a kind of mercenary or persona for hire,
penultimate actors in the greatest play they can find: life. Changelings
do not often take non-changelings into their confidence, and those
who they do accept this way are valued higher than any treasure the
changeling could ever acquire.

Playing a Changeling
 Add 1 to your Communication ability.
 Pick one of the following ability focuses: Communication
(Deception), Dexterity (Legerdemain), or Intelligence
(Cultural Lore).
 You have Dark Sight, which allows you to see up to 20 yards
in darkness without a light source.
 You gain a specialized form of the spell illusory guise. You
can only use this ability on yourself, it actually changes your
shape instead of creates an illusion, and it affects only your
physical being, not any worn or carried items. You may
appear as any race you like, though appearing as a specific
person requires a Communication (Deception) test, against
the target’s Perception (Empathy), possibly modified for the
relationship the target may have with the actual person. Using
this ability is a major action.
 Your speed is equal to 10 + Dexterity (minus armor penalty
if applicable).
 You can speak and read the Common Tongue and two other languages of your choice.
 Roll twice on the Changeling Benefits table for additional benefits. Roll 2d6 and add the dice together. If you get the
same result twice, re-roll until you get something different.
