 * The Changelings are one of Orrin's misfit races, cursed to take any form they wish, but never able to truly know a home. Changelings, as a whole, are a generally mischievous race due to their abilities, which often finds them socially ostracized once their true forms are discovered. They have no real racial prejudices, as they themselves can take the form of any race, but find themselves antagonized by Humans and Dwarves. Despite their abilities, many Changelings strive to find places where people will accept them for who they are, and treat their adoptive family like their own. They have no real settlements of their own, and instead tend to form secret groups and safe havens in the cities of the other powerful races.


 * Changelings have no particular preference when it comes to races, instead developing their feelings towards other races based upon the society that they live in. They are not particularly wary of outsiders, as they themselves are, and Changelings who grow up by themselves tend not to have any particular feeling towards any of the races. Many Changelings often have a favorite form, and they tend to bond with those of the same race as that form. They are willing to work with anyone who accepts them for who they are.


 * Changelings are not totally destined to become outsiders, and make good members of adventuring parties who value their unique skillsets and abilities. Those who can keep track of a Changeling's many different forms will find their company to be worthwhile.
