'''The Changeling''' is an infamous [[Horror of Tzeentch]].
===Overview==[[File:ChangelingArt.jpg|right|thumb|250px|The Changeling]]=
The Changeling has the ability to assume the shape of any creature to use for trickery, to sow mistrust and confusion, and while not in battle to play practical jokes on the unwary.{{Fn|1}} The Changeling has altered so many times that even he has forgotten his original appearance. Only the God [[Tzeentch]] remembers it, and keeps it secret as a means of controlling the Changeling. The Changeling's schemes are not limited to the mortal realm, and he has been known to play tricks on even [[Gods of Chaos]] themselves, such as cutting [[Slaanesh]]'s hair as the Dark Prince slept or putting [[Nurgling]]s on [[Khorne]]'s throne, creating a mess the next time the Blood God sat down.{{Fn|3}}
The Changeling wields the [[Trickster's Staff]], which can mimic the weapons of his enemies.{{Fn|6}}
