Features
- Shapechange
As an action, you can alter your physical appearance to mimic that of a humanoid you have observed for at least 10 minutes. You can adjust apparent height (within 6 in), build, facial structure, hair, skin tone, voice, and minor distinguishing marks. Your size, ability scores, hit points, and statistics remain unchanged; weight changes are illusory and do not allow you to pass through spaces a creature of your true mass could not. Checks made to see through your disguise have disadvantage; the change persists until you end it or you fall unconscious. This is a physical, not magical, transformation, and is not revealed by channels that detect illusion.
- Mutable Mind
Your sense of self is more fluid than that of fixed-form lineages. You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed and against effects that would compel you to act against your interests. While in a shifted form, you also have advantage on Charisma (Deception) checks made to maintain that form's social identity.
- Unmarked Origin
Changelings move between cultures and pick up speech patterns the way other lineages pick up accents. Each time you gain an Intelligence ability score increase, you also learn one additional language of your choice. You can read, write, and speak any languages you know without trace of a native accent.
- Familiar Tongues
You begin play with Common and one additional language of your choice.

Changelings mature quickly and age in their final decade more visibly than the cultures they pass through often realize.
