Inspiration

You can find inspiration for your changeling character, magic items and spells, and so on from lots of places. Here are some suggestions to get you started.

Poems and Songs

 * "Goblin Market" by Christina Rossetti
 * “Der Erlkönig” by Goethe.
 * “Stolen Child” by William Butler Yeats.
 * “The Fairies” by William Allingham.
 * “Come Little Children” (YouTube) unknown attribution, but appears to have originated with Hocus Pocus. Video is a fan arrangement by Erutan and uses clips from Pan's Labyrinth (lyrics in the description if you don't want to watch the video).

Short Fairy Tales

 * SurLaLune Fairy Tales
 * Or just about any fairy tale collection you can find

Books and Movies

 * Hellboy 2 - includes a great example of Goblin Markets.
 * Stardust - another great example of Goblin Markets, and why you should be careful in the agreements you make.
 * Spirited Away - a good example of a durance with a Keeper (Yubaba) and of contracts as magically binding agreements.
 * Coraline - the Beldam is one of the True Fae.
 * Labyrinth - a trip to Arcadia, with the Goblin King as a True Fae.
 * The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe - the White Witch is a True Fae. Also shows a durance that doesn't match up with the time gone, though the children reverted to their original ages when they came back to the mortal world.
 * Natsume's Book of Friends - Natsume has a book inherited from his grandmother where she collected the names of various youkai (Japanese fae/demon/etc. creatures) after defeating them. Now youkai are coming to Natsume to reclaim their names, or to steal the book so they can control the youkai whose names are contained therein.
