In the world of Changeling: The Dreaming, Kiths represent the various physical and spiritual lineages of the Kithain. While Seemings describe a changeling's age and station in life, Kiths define their primary heritage and innate magical traits.
There are nine major Kiths recognized across the Dreaming:
Boggans: Industrious, helpful, and community-oriented artisans who thrive on hard work, hospitality, and keeping secrets.
Eshu: Charismatic, wandering storytellers and travelers blessed with a deep connection to fate and fortune.
Nockers: Brilliant, cynical, and eccentric inventors and craftsmen who create wonders of chimerical and physical technology.
Pooka: Mischievous, shape-shifting pranksters bound by an intrinsic connection to animals and a compulsion to tell tall tales.
Redcaps: Vicious, terrifying, and grotesque commoners whose insatiable appetites and brutal tempers make them the most feared enforcers of the dark.
Satyrs: Passionate, hedonistic, and headstrong sensualists driven by wild urges, music, and physical prowess.
Sidhe: The dazzling, noble, and aristocratic lords of Arcadia, gifted with unmatched grace, beauty, and presence.
Sluagh: Cryptic, unsettling, and shadowy gossips who dwell in secret places and feed upon whispered secrets and fears.
Trolls: Towering, honorable, and fiercely loyal guardians bound by an unyielding oath-pledge and unbreakable physical strength.
