 +====== Character Creation Notes ======
 +I will require:
 +  * A Seeming (Race)
 +  * A Kith (sub race)
 +  * Court (Like covenant. Courtless or Autumn aren't options.)
 +  * Preference for contracts (Disciplines. I can't promise you'll get your wishes, but I'll try. All Seemings have their own specific Contract included and Each Court has an option of one)
 +
 +
 +If you have time/inclination also:
 +  * Some idea of when/how you were stolen away from your previous life by the True Fae
 +  * Why were you stolen away?
 +  * How did you escape? (Run away is most likely, death of Keeper really unlikely)
 +  * How much real-world time has passed, versus Fae time?
 +  * The Fae left a double in your stead. Is it still around?
 +
 +
 +Here some general notes:
 +  * Setting will be modern day London, though the character could have been stolen away from anywhere. And anywhen technically.
 +  * All Changeling's have recently (within last 6 months) escaped from their True Fae Keeper, whether by running away or otherwise, but it was a pact and you came through roughly at the same time
 +  * All characters know each other and at least kind of get on.
 +

 +====== Answering Questions ======
 +
 +**Kith:**
 +In brief, the kith affects appearance (amongst other Changelings at least), tendencies, a supernatural blessing and some reflection of personality.
 +
 +This page: http://wiki.white-wolf.com/worldofdarkness/index.php?title=Kiths
 +Lists Kiths not in the main book. Let me know if any look interesting, I have all the other books.
 +
 +
 +**Keepers:**
 +The Fae Keeper is indeed the Fae who stole you away in the first place and who may very well want you back or punish you for escaping or make your life a misery for tricking them. Most want their charges back though. And punish them. Or what if you only thought you escaped? Is this perhaps some new torment for their entertainment?
 +I am open to suggestions for the Keeper.
 +
 +Keepers fall into the same Seemings and kith patterns as Changelings, but are not necessarily the same as the individual Changeling, e.g. an Ogre might want a Changeling of the Fairest to keep something beautiful around them, a Fae Elemental might have a Changeling of the Beasts to hunt in great forests and then resurrect the next day for it all to repeat. One of the Fairest may choose a pretty girl, make her into an Ogre and keep her in a room of mirrors so she may revel in her crying all day and night. Forever.
 +You get the idea.
 +
 +
 +**Historical Figures:**
 +Yes, absolutely as long as you think you can pull it off.
 +Also the True Fae are more likely to choose children or teens than adults. Adults are taken, but their rigid minds are more likely to break beyond The Hedge in the lands of the Fae.
 +Also, bear in mind that the historical figure's stay in the lands of the Fae will have changed them dramatically. Joan of Arc may not quite have her head screwed on quite straight after centuries as a Fireheart Elemental, never mind the fact that the world has changed dramatically.
 +
 +
 +**Closed or open game:**
 +In all honesty I'm not sure yet. I was thinking of creating a few extra characters and then seeing if we want to invite anyone else...
 +
 +
 +**Addendum:**
 +Check out this page for more info: http://wiki.white-wolf.com/worldofdarkness/index.php?title=Changeling:_The_Lost
 +
 +Also, for the short of time, if you want to give single word character instructions (like "Jester" or "Rockstar") or single sentence instructions (like "Winter Court breaker of hearts who wants to make other people as sad as he was the day he learnt that his parents loved his Fetch more than him") rather than anything more in depth, that's perfectly fine!
