Changelings
A changeling is a fay child that is changed by deep magic and left in place of a human child stolen by the fey. Unfortunately, many cultures will claim that their child is a changeling to explain unknown diseases, disorders, or developmental disabilities. However, occasionally, a child has been actually changed and the human child they should have was brought to the feywild. Often, this child is also quickly changed by fey magic, causing them to become a Wildling or in very rare cases, a Nocturne. Changelings have been so deeply altered by the magic that puts them in place of a human child that they lose all fey abilities and are given the ability to blend in to the society they were raised in.
Ability Score Increase: Your Charisma score increases by 2. In addition, one ability score of your choice increases by 1.
Age: Changelings mature slightly faster than humans but share a similar lifespan – typically a century or less. While a changeling can shapeshift to conceal their age, the effects of aging still catch up to them.
Size: In their natural forms, changelings average between 5 to 6 feet in height, with a slender build. Your size is Medium.
Speed: Your base walking speed is 30 feet.
Change Appearance: As an action, you can change your appearance and your voice. You determine the specifics of the changes, including your coloration, hair length, and sex. You can also adjust your height and weight, but not so much that your size changes. You can make yourself appear as a member of another race, though none of your game statistics change. You can't duplicate the appearance of a creature you've never seen, and you must adopt a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs that you have. Your clothing and equipment aren't changed by this trait. You stay in the new form until you use an action to revert to your true form or until you die.
Changeling Instincts: You gain proficiency with two of the following skills of your choice: Deception,Insight, Intimidation, and Persuasion.
Cold iron Vulnerability: Despite your time in the material plane and all of the changes made to allow you to blend in, you still retain a vulnerability to cold iron due to your fey ancestry.
Languages: You can speak, read, and write Common and two other languages of your choice.
Changelings adapt to whatever culture they were raised in. However, because many of them are abandoned and turned away from society as fey infiltrators and as "child thieves." Many of these lost children find a home in Sakhira, under the guidance and care of Beilish.
