Changeling/Kith Listing

This is effectively a copy of the Kith listing of the page here, however it has been updated with SHH's House Rules which are done in bold. Where the plaintext is incorrect to the book, we treat the books as containing the correct rules. It is the responsibility of the player to be sure that they are using their Kith Blessings properly, however. This is intended primarily as a general guide and central listing.

NOTE: While staff has eliminated the limitation of Kiths to Seeming (please see the Changeling House Rules page for more information), these are organized by traditional means for ease of access and readability.
