Changeling Species in Etheria | World Anvil

Changeling

Changelings are a race of humanoid creatures in Etheria who have the ability to change their appearance.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Changelings can look like anyone at any given time, but all changelings have a true form.    The true form of a changeling is usually a pastel color, ranging from light pinks, purples, greens, yellows, and blues, even greys.    Changelings typically have large eyes with narrow pupils, ranging in color from white, to yellow, to black. Hair colors are similar: Light grey, platinum blonde, shades of silver, all the way to the darkest hair color being a light brown.    Most changelings lack facial hair while in their true form.  They have long, thick tails that reach the floor.

Uses, Products & Exploitation

Because of their shapeshifting abilities, changelings have been sought out by leaders in wars for generations to use as spies.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Changelings are naturally good performers. At a young age, they instinctively begin to mimic the world around them, taking on different roles.    They also tend to be soft-footed, moving quietly around the otherwise busy lives of Etheria.
