Well, I didn't care much for the oWoD Changeling; it was too whimsical for my taste, not really a good fit for the World of Darkness.

I liked the premise of the nWoD Changeling much better: instead of playing an actual Faerie that has gone 'undercover' and appears to be a normal human being, you're a human that had been abducted into the Faerie realm at some point and now managed to flee and return to the real world. Only, now you've picked up a bit of Glamour and are no longer fully human.

It's a much better fit and also closer to the original meaning of 'Changeling'.

Well, regardless of edition, he needs to be armed with...a FALCHION!

FALCHION

There's a brand new blade
But I don't know it's name
That people from strange lands
Use again and again
It's big and it's bad
Bringing tension and fear
They use it over there
but we don't use it here

[CHORUS]
Falchion! Strike to the left
Falchion! Strike to the right
Ohhhhh, Falchion!
We are the goon squad
And we're coming to town
Bleed-bleed
Bleed-bleed

Listen to me - don't listen to me
Talk to me - don't talk to me
Fight with me - don't fight with me, no
Bleed-bleed
Bleed-bleed

There's a brand new sound,
But it's not very clear
That people from good homes
Are hearing this year
It's loud and tasteless
And I've heard it before
You hear it while you're killing
On the front lines of war
Ohhhhh chop, Falchion

[CHORUS]

Listen to me - don't listen to me
Talk to me - don't talk to me
Fight with me - don't fight with me, no
Bleed-bleed
Bleed-bleed

Ohhhhh, block,
chop chop chop chop chop chop chop chop
Fa-fa-fa-fa-Falchion
Ohhhhh, block,
chop chop chop chop chop chop chop chop
Fa-fa-fa-fa-Falchion
La-la la la la la la-la

Agreed, though if any person fits as a character in Changeling the Dreaming, it's David Bowie.

In Changeling the Lost, he'd be a True Fae.
