Royal
“You know if I wasn’t as half insane as I am - none of these schemes would work.”

Changeling
Alignment:
Chaotic Neutral / Sometimes Chaotic Good
Bio:
Born into the Badlands, the Changeling Royal was very readily hardy enough to live in an environment completely hostile to them. Taking up residence in one of the few bastions of safety, they grew up not knowing what they were. Their parents being an elf, and their ‘father’ leaving them to pursue a life outside of the wilds. Growing up in such an environment that constantly changed with bewilderment had a deep impact on Royal. They didn’t have many friends, but they did have a rival in the form of a friend - an elf, who constantly challenged Royal to bouts of fighting. Even for such a young kid, Royal always found hooked daggers fun to play with - it was only natural they would lean towards using them in combat. A big bulky sword would only keep back their troublemaking ways… And what a troublemaker he was. Stealing, harassing and generally being a nuisance to all those who weren't their mother. They drummed up a reputation as a mad child, a softy at heart but overall ass to everyone.
Eventually, all things changed - and so did they. Wanderlust would set in at the age of sixteen, this overwhelming feeling to seek out their own kind - changelings - and possibly their father. One day, they would pack up; prepared to wander into the wilds and hopefully find a way out. Before he left, he would take a single memento from their father…
A compass that spun every time their mother held it.
Taking such an obviously magical item with the intention to leave the wilds upset their mother, but she knew that Royal would leave eventually… It was a matter of time. They weren’t stopped as they left, but they were approached by their elven rival. They also wanted a way out of the Wilds, and an uneasy alliance was formed. Following the compass, Royal would quickly find out it’s value. It was a compass that pointed them towards what they most wanted… That their father would leave such an item behind was mind boggling. It was such a strange idea to have an object of power left behind - but the changeling followed, before they arrived at a gate. They would nod, passing through it and both arriving in the mainland…
Abilities:
- Psionics -
Since a young age, Royal has had energy building inside of them. This energy allows them to use psychic powers.
Telekinesis: Royal is able to manipulate the world around them with the power of their mind, translating sheer mental power into physical force. They can move things with their mind, and make certain skills (such as lockpicking) easier.
- Psi Knives -
They can manifest your psionic power as shimmering blades of psychic energy.
- Teleporting -
They can manifest one of their Psychic Blades and throw the blade at an unoccupied space they can see - up to 100ft away and teleport to that spot. Doing so over long distances, however - will cause a massive strain on their head. They can also only do this up to two times, before taking a moment to recover.
- Changeling Shift -
Royal can change every feature of their body, making them able to disguise themselves as anyone they see/create.
-The Compass -
Royal owns a compass that was passed down from their father, which when held and used by Royal can point to their greatest desire. Due to their changeling nature, they can use it to change their desire; making it easy to change their mind. However, a side effect is that if they're conflicted - it spins wildly out of control and unusable.
