could you give more of a reliable source? This seems to contradict Eberron established lore.


** Doppelgangers, a species that is generally too lazy to bother with parenting, usually reproduce by assuming the forms of attractive males of their preferred species and bedding women from that species before clearing off. The resulting offspring look like members of their mothers' species but are in fact doppelgangers who are basically [[ShapeshifterModeLock mode locked]] until they hit puberty. Except in ''TabletopGame/{{Eberron}}'', where Doppelganger/human crossbreeding instead produces Changelings with lesser shapeshifting abilities.

Added DiffLines:

* Kitsune mothers in "Literature/NoNeedForACore" almost always have kitsune children, though those children may also gain other traits. This is less reliable with kitsune fathers. Fae creatures tend to flip this, with their offspring being clearly part fae and with fae traits cropping up randomly even in distant descendants.
