Their base changeling is absolutely a sickly looking Victorian child, so they knowingly picked the plumpest thickest goddess of a woman they could think of 💅 (the reasons behind it are not the nicest but I can forgive them)

Think I read in one of your posts it's for Curse of Strahd; as a huge Ravenloft nerd (seriously, been one for literally 30 years) if she's a demiplane native and not an outlander (and if you haven't written her whole backstory) the best Domain of origin for her is Paridon from the Zherisia Cluster.

Paridon is basically Regency-era London/Paris (it's in the name😜) with a relatively large population of dread dopplegangers, so any non-outlander changeling is most likely from there; in fact the Fraternity of Shadows' Zherisia netbook hints at changelings living in hiding from both parent species.

Yes they are my wizard for CoS! So I have a bit of lore for this character, not all has been discussed in game so I can't say much but the changeling (they/them) is actually from the Faerun, not a named city since it's mostly homebrewed! But very Victorian/Bloodborne inspired 😳

(Also if you want Ravenloft lore I'm your guy - don't hesitate to ask here or in DMs; I just LOOOOVE to talk about my favorite D&D setting)

Great, although one thing I will say: I'm very much a grognard, and most of the 5e lore changes and their implementation REALLY rub me the wrong way.

Fair enough.

For the character I was mostly inspired by a very good Bloodborne series by Charred Thermos, it's a bit unorthodox as an overall story but I wanted to keep it ground the Faerun
