Yes, Rae, and you can have a sidhe possess a horribly scarred mutilation victim. But how -likely- is it?

You can still have a mortal shell that doesn't match your soul exactly

If they're desperate? Very.

Entirely. Who says that they have time to pick and choose before their soul degrades from the sudden onslaught of banality?

But for commoners, the Fae soul also seems to affect development, or they are drawn to those who will match.

Yep, fang.

Troll mortal seemings still tend to be tall.

But that soul might pick someone NOT Germanic.

Only if there's no other choice, which means, likely rare.

Sure, you can play a special snowflake, "Well, MY troll is a black midget!" pats player on the head Sure.

Both Jeff and Jeremy's souls picked a heterosexual vessel.

I don't play that as genetic.

eyeroll An italian troll, a nigerian troll, a chinese troll... all far cries from "special snowflake"

Because it's not, or not wholly, and as Earl-p said, Fae are reincarnated as both.

If they have the blood, it's fine, if it's not, and you are doing it just to BE speical, it's snowflake.

All PCs are special.

Awwwwh.

Or they are NPCs.

Which means, we aren't playing Changeling, then. Because it loses the feel of the game.

I suppose: Most commoners and a few sidhe (primarily from House Scathach) reincarnate in succeeding generations of human families, generally those with fae blood.

Even Kel?

Precisely, Rae...they tend to run in families, which does imply -- to me - a sort of sympathetic magick.

So, something I hadn't really thought about - for example, after Jer dies, he might come back as Ice's kid or grand kid

Because a troll's mama makes great cannoli?

If Ice lives long enough to have one. 😛

But it does say "generally" and "most".

Yes, not all. But most.

Why do you think Kel sought to actually breed with nobility?

So, I think anything is possible, if you can dream it up. :) Like, say, if Ice doesn't have a kid.

I tend to think if it don't hurt the game and the player enjoys, go for it. 🙂

Jeremy's soul might have to settle!

Aw, man, Italian troll, inspired by roman dreams? Stoic philosophy, strong battle tactics?

Whereas, I think if everyone does it, then we may as well bring in Jedi.....why not, we enjoy it?

Yes, Kel has one child. With a Gwydion Lady.

I agree. A jedi knight is entirely possible as something someone dreamt up these days.

Agree with Mr. D.

Jeremy wouldn't pick Ice as his father if he HAD a choice....

Shades, really?

Everyone should play outside of canon?

But sluagh blood in the family.

but everyone doesn't do it. I haven't run into a group that wanted to play all Jedi or all Midget trolls or what not 🙂

Jedi? Totally. Especially with modern dreams. Chimerical lightsaber, likely seelie...

Great, so I'll ask Kitty back.

I bet that following the Pokemon Go craze, there were tons of poke-chimera roaming about.

Kitty Tanaka played that character.

Snapper ate one 🙂

Let him know he can bring his cybernetic jedi cat pooka in again.

The Jedi. It was done terribly.

Hey, HE enjoyed it!

Just because it doesn't fit your view, doesn't mean it's not a perfectly valid character. And it's not fair to bring in Kitty because she was a clear troll. No offense to the blue ones.
