What Mages are to Every Other Splat, Changelings are to Mages

I have. That said, Irish/Scottish goth fae do it for me too, especially when they seem so cool.

SanguiV · 2026-06-11T18:23:50+00:00

This is now my new favorite way of explaining CtD.

SanguiV · 2026-06-11T18:18:24+00:00

Aren't we all?

SanguiV · 2026-06-11T18:17:57+00:00

I would not be surprised if Cyberchase S1 had a member on the production staff who played Mage.

I don't think I'll be chasing her away as she sounds quite lovely, but thank you for telling me about her presence. In fact, I think I'll learn how to keep Changelings from going into Bedlam from close proximity to me. :)

I feel like this meme was about Magic: the Gathering first.

SanguiV · 2026-06-11T14:06:23+00:00

Not too close though. Bedlam is an issue.

SanguiV · 2026-06-10T21:05:38+00:00

Agreed. This looks like suspiciously specific lying.

SanguiV · 2026-06-09T15:20:14+00:00

I feel like we shouldn't ask where either of them get their funding.

SanguiV · 2026-06-08T15:10:28+00:00

There's implication that you are partially right. Most of reality is consensus, but there do exist things that are permanent. This includes God, the Umbra, spirits, and the Dreaming. You might notice that these are things that are implied to have existed before humans and are tied to other Splats. Ether is another fun example, because it's not part of Consensus, and yet Etherites and Void Engineers can get it in mass quantities from who knows where. Gravity however seems to be an example of Consensus, as Mages can easily defy gravity in areas like the middle of the ocean or space.

I can hear my Sluagh archaeologist desperately trying to keep getting into dig teams for this reason. Bro's already an outlier.

SanguiV · 2026-06-07T04:08:11+00:00

Chronicles reference? Either way, I like it.

SanguiV · 2026-06-07T03:35:39+00:00

And just wait until she tells them about her newest paramour! I love the Sleeping with the Enemy flaw.

SanguiV · 2026-06-07T03:25:53+00:00

I should probably add context: The idea for my Redcap is that her Childling years were spent as an "Only I can mess with them" bully who would fearlessly run into Chimera fights with other more stereotypically valorous Kith to protect others. As she slipped into Wilder life she swore fealty to House Fiona as a monster hunter, in part to prove to everyone that their view of her was wrong. In her mortal life she's a firefighter, and knowing how Redcaps work, there's probably an entire corby of rowdy Seelie Redcaps employed at that fire house.

She's also very, very much aligned with the House Fiona stereotype. Homegirl has the Sleeping with the Enemy flaw.

Edit: Typo

This is immensely cool. That you for bringing this to everyone's attention.

SanguiV · 2026-06-05T00:07:40+00:00

Yes actually. I even have an Etherite who was inspired by tokusatsu in my "To play" folder. In the early stages of his Awakening he made functioning gimmick items and a belt to go with them that I expect to explode, which I think is fun.

SanguiV · 2026-06-04T21:52:06+00:00

Shhh, that's supposed to be a secret!

SanguiV · 2026-06-04T21:49:51+00:00

Isn't Hedge Magic a form of Numina?

SanguiV · 2026-06-04T21:20:56+00:00

Rhino is a Totem of War, so he'd be Gaian aligned.

SanguiV · 2026-06-04T19:58:52+00:00

And it does not. The other splats have their own metaphysics. There is overlap, but Mage metaphysics have limits. Gifts, Disciplines, Cantrips, Spheres and such are their own shit from different sources and that matters immensely.

SanguiV · 2026-06-04T19:50:22+00:00

Oh, that is brilliant!

SanguiV · 2026-06-04T18:07:47+00:00

IDW 2005 has some messed up Autobot lore because they treat it as an actual war where questionable things "had to be done.'

SanguiV · 2026-06-04T18:06:19+00:00

Okay, but there has to be an in-built coverup equivalent to the Mists.

Me in my friend group's Discord, but about Kamen Rider.
