Sneak Attack (Ex): An changeling can make a sneak attack like a rogue, dealing an extra 2d6 points of damage whenever a foe is denied its Dexterity bonus or when the changeling is flanking.

Minor Change Shape (Su): Changelings have the supernatural ability to alter their appearance as though using a disguise self spell that affects their bodies but not their possessions. This is not an illusory effect but a minor physical alteration of a changeling's facial features, skin color and texture, and size, within the limits described for the spell. A changeling can use this ability at will, and the alteration lasts until she changes shape again. A changeling reverts to her natural form when killed. A true seeing spell reveals her natural form. Using this ability is a full-round action.

Skills: *When using its minor change shape ability, a changeling gets a +10 circumstance bonus on Disguise checks.

Changeling spies deal in information and avoid combat unless they have allies to support them. Some changeling spies use their natural charisma to lead small gangs of cloaked changeling warriors, relying on their minions to create flanking opportunities for sneak attacks.
