Fae

Realms in Changeling magic, known as Arts, apply directly to who or what you can effect. Without knowing the proper realms a Changeling is unable to affect anything. Realms are a necessary part of casting a Cantrip.

The less acquainted you are with a particular being, be it a werewolf, mortal, wraith, vampire, etc., the greater mastery of Actor is required. To affect someone you are opposed to, regardless of knowledge, requires complete mastery.

Nature

  • Base Element - Natural elements in pure form, or earth, air, water, fire.
  • Raw Material - Unliving, organic materials: wood, rope, paper, etc.
  • Verdant Forest - Living, organic plant material.
  • Feral Animal - Living, nonsentient animals.
  • Natural Phenomena - Weather, volcanic eruptions, geothermal reactions, etc.

Scene

  • Chamber
  • Cottage
  • Lonely Lane
  • The Glen
  • The Castle

Time

  • Three-Fold - The duration of the Cantrip is tripled.
  • Suspended Sands - The cantrip’s effect is delayed, and will activate at a time of the player’s choosing (set when the cantrip is cast), up to a year and a day in the future.
  • Fateful Trigger - Rather than being delayed by a set amount of time, the cantrip may be set to “hang” until a specified trigger occurs, set by the player. Examples include “the next time a Kithain walks through the door,” “the next time Bill the Sluagh walks through the door,” or “the next time the door is opened.” The character must use the appropriate Realm or Realms for the target of the trigger.
  • Bright Echoes - After the cantrip ends, it automatically reactivates a second time. The second activation applies the cantrip’s effects as though it rolled only a single success, no matter how many successes the original cantrip generated. If the first use of the cantrip failed, so does its echo.
  • Glorious Renewal - The Cantrip becomes seasonal and reactivates after being dormant. The specific circumstance for the Cantrip reactivating is dictated by the player, but must involve a significant marker (such as an equinox, eclipse, birthday, etc.) and there must be significantly more time between activations than the duration of the cantrip.

Inanimae Realms

The Inanimae use a set of elemental realms that are very similar to those practiced by the Kithain, but are divided differently. The only Realm not represented by the Inanimae system is Time. Wilder Inanimae and older may also practice Kithain Realms, instead.

Air: Vaguely analogous to Scene, Air is the element that surrounds the globe. It effects non-living environment and a cantrip that effects weather, air, temperature, or anything else within the area of the caster or target.

Earth: Vaguely equivalent to Prop, Earth affects non-living, non-supernatural objects, natural and crafted. Enchanted objects need another Realm.

Fire: Vaguely analogous to Nature and Actor, Fire is used to effect non-supernatural living creatures. It effects only the physical aspect of such creatures. This realm would also be used to affect mortal humans physically.

Water: Vaguely related to Nature and Actor, Water only effects the mental environment of non-supernatural living creatures. Confusing others needs this realm.

Spirit: Equivalent to Fae, vaguely, Spirit is used to effect any aspect of a supernatural being or thing, including other Fae. It effects environment as well as the physical and mental realms. It also effects enchanted mortals.
