Changelings, the Doplegangers of the awakened world.
 
 
<<Digital Doom>> Welcome to the updated world of Changelings for the 4th edition. It is a percarious world, where nothing is what it seems. Unlike their cousins the shape shifter, the changeling is a true Doplganger, able to take the shape of almost ANY living being seen.

Here are the house rules for a Changeling brought to you by that MegaCorp SwS Eternal Games....

<<Hellhound>> Good that corp knows what it's talking about.

<<Yacco>> And you know this how?

<<Hellhound>> read on.

All Changelings have a natural Meta/Human form. You must buy the race you want at standard cost. Changlings have an aditional cost of 25BP.

Attribute Max: Varries depending on race chosen.

All changlings will have these powers: *Shape Shift (takes a complex action to preform), Astral Chameleon, Exceptional atrabute, #regeneration, dual natured, Improved scence (smell, hearing, taste, thermographic vision), Magic resistance 1, and ambidextrous.

<<Trog Lover>> Drek these things are strong!

The changeling does have some very important weaknesses. They have a sevear allergy to silver. They also can NOT have any kind of bio or cyberware.

<<Yacco>> Good, these things have a weekness...

<<Hellhound>> Read on!

Changelings can have magical talent. They have been known to be Adepts as well as mystic adepts. There are even rumors of a Technomancer or two.

<<Quick Fingers>> Frag! is there nothing these things can't do?

There are some skills that all Changelings posess. Survival 3, Con 4, disguise 4, and perception 2. These are thought to be minimum stats for these skills.

<<Shade>> Some of us have been known to even run the shadows.

<<Ozone>> Drek! They even seem to have acess to Shadowland.

<<Shade>> Yes some of us do.

* Shape shift: Player charactors can change into any creature seen with a body +/- 3 from the changlings unaugmented body attribute.
A changling can also change into people seen of any race. (use desguise skill for any test and con to convince you are that person if conversing.)
It takes a complex action to shift shapes.
The changling can not get any of the skills or powers of the target while in that shape.

<<Yacco>> Good, at least they don't get any of the powers of the dragon they just assumed the shape of.

# Regeneration: Only in "Natural" Meta/Human form.
