This supplement has 100 briefly described redcaps that can be used in a game of Changeling: the Dreaming. In most cases, their court allegiance, and often their seeming, are not described, allowing a Storyteller to configure them as needed. They can be used as random Kithain encountered, or as friends or foes.
The redcaps are named and a brief description of their major point of interest is given.
To use the list, either roll d100 for a random result or select appropriate ones manually.
Here are some sample results:
87. Robyn MacNamara: Robyn is a chief enforcer for their corby, which mainly means that the redcap gets to break more heads and other body parts than usual. Which, given the general nature of redcaps, means that Robyn is extremely violent. The corby’s leader realised that Robyn’s violent urges needed to be channelled into something that wouldn’t cause problems for the leader, and they therefore point the redcap at different targets; competitors, people who have failed to make good on their debts, people who looked at the leader funny; the list goes on.
88. Samuel Sutharlainn: Samuel’s hero is a man, or possibly redcap, who may or may not have been real but was likely based on an element of truth. That man is known in legend as Sawney Bean, the head of a Scottish clan that were said to have cannibalised over a thousand people. As might be guessed from Samuel’s, rather disturbing, choice of hero, the redcap really likes eating people, and seeks to emulate Sawney Bean as much as possible. Samuel hasn’t yet managed to create a clan – or, for them, corby – of like-minded people, but they are meanwhile working on the cannibalisation side of things.
89. Sarah Cunningham: Children in the neighbourhood warn people away from Sarah’s home, saying that if they go in, the monster will eat them. They are right. Sarah is a redcap grump, an unholy horror with an insatiable appetite. Her home is rundown and ill-maintained; Sarah has no interest in maintaining it and no-one in their right mind wants to go inside. If anything living goes missing in the neighbourhood, Sarah is the one blamed, and this blame is justified, but nobody is willing to confront the redcap yet. Though if enough people band together, that may change.
