Gremlins are a sub-type of the Wizened seeming - a culture-themed kith of malevolent tinkerers. Theirs is the blessing of Gremlinizing Touch.
Overview[]
Gremlins are born more of modern folktales than anything, with their first official entrance into the lore appearing during World War I. Malevolent little gremlins were said to tinker with planes, causing them to malfunction and potentially crash.
Many such malfunctions were blamed on gremlins (as a joke and, for some, a very real fear), and they entered the modern canon as any kind of faerie-like creature said to disrupt the workings of machines. (Worth noting is that the term may come from the Irish Gaelic, gruaimin, meaning “ill-humored little man.”) Wizened who assume the Gremlin kith are particularly good at damaging items temporarily with the Gremlinizing Touch.
