Changeling

A fairy swapped for a mortal child, given a mortal name. Changelings look like the mortal family they are adopted into (willingly or not), but they behave slightly "off" compared to how children are expected to develop and live in such cultures and species. As they age, they gain different fairy powers and begin showing their true nature. If they are returned to Faerie, they become much more powerful. In mortal realms, they are feared, hated, and few make it through childhood. Those who grow up thinking they are mortal never fit in, but they have many strange charms they can't explain.
