Converting Dark Ages: Fae to newWorld of Darkness rules
There isn't going to be a new version of Changeling for the newWorld of Darkness system, and theDark Ages: Fae rules are both closer to the new system than Changeling, and more satisfying in terms
of what you can do with them. They don't need much conversion at all.
Character creationCreate a character as perWorld of Darkness rulebook, p34-5; for stage 5, Supernatural Template, addthe following steps:
i. Choose Origin (Changeling, Firstborn or Inanimae). Beginning dots for Mists, Weaving andDominions are unchanged.
ii. Choose Court (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter or Solstice). Favoured Dominions are unchanged.Add one dot to favoured Attribute:
Spring: Dexterity or Composure
Summer: Presence or ResolveAutumn: Wits or ManipulationWinter: Intelligence or StaminaSolstice: any one Attribute
iii. Other Traits. Note that:- Gramarye is available to Fae as an Occult Speciality; Kenning is available to Fae as an EmpathySpeciality.- The Backgrounds Holdings, Oaths, Sprites andTreasures are available to Fae characters asMerits; each can be bought at level to and behave as per their descriptions in Dark Ages:Fae, p92-95.
iv. Experience. Fae Traits cost experience as follows:
Favoured Dominion: New rating x 5Non-favoured Dominion: New rating x 6Mists or Weaving: New Rating x 3New Greater Feature: 5
v. Other Faerie characteristics are as per Dark Ages: Fae, p82-88.
SpritesSprites follow the same rules as Ghosts; their stats are the same as given in Dark Ages: Fae, p96, whereRage becomes Power, Gnosis becomes Finesse andWillpower becomes Resistance.
Essence remains the same. Size is 2; Corpus levels are equal to Resistance + Size; Speed is Power +
Finesse + 10 (species factor); Initiative Modifier is Finesse + Resistance.
Magic and DominionsDominions, Oaths and Echoes are mostly unchanged, with only the following alterations:i. Obsolete Traits should be replaced with new ones: replaceAppearance or Charisma with
Presence and Perception with Composure.ii. Difficulty adjustments (e.g. For Court, time of day, etc.) are now applied to dice pools, on a one for
one basis, so -1 difficulty becomes +1 to dice pools, -2 difficulty becomes +2 to dice pools, +1difficulty becomes -1 to dice pools and so on.
iii.Willpower is no longer rolled. If a Willpower roll is asked for, roll Resolve + Composure instead. IfWillpower is cited as a difficulty, make casting the cantrip a reflexive contested roll, matching the
cantrip dice pool (usually Attribute + Dominion) against Resolve + Composure.
