Kinain

There is a great deal of contradiction and disconnect in the WoD books on the topic of the Kinain. The Caerleon Chronicles takes the canonical material that seems best suited for the room- and enhances it even further.
==The Kinain In Wales==
The magic and grandeur of the Fae ran deep in Wales after the Sundering and even after the Shattering. Many were the native kiths that struggled against the dimming of the land's glamour, first with the Romans and then later the Church. The Tylwyth Teg and Bendith Y Mamau are two names by which the Fae were known to the humans of Wales. The Kinain numbered heavily among the Welsh kings, bards and heroes.
Most kinain supported the commoners during the Accordance War except for Tuatha de Fion, the Faeblooded Garoun and their kin. In the subsequent thirty years, the Sidhe took many of those kinain as servants and paramours, bringing an entirely new generation of kinain that are their own favored offspring. Most commoners are short-lived and are undone before their children are old enough to know them for what they are. The Sidhe of House Fiona in Gwent do not seem to be suffering as gravely from banality as most others; they surround themselves with courts of commoners, prodigals and kinain in the ancient freeholds they reclaimed during the Accordance War.
Not all kinain are aware that they are Faeblooded. Some are artists, authors, musicians, con artists and eccentrics who live oblivious to the supernatural. Others are deeply involved with magick and the occult. Some vampires have developed a penchant for the blood of kinain, becoming addicted to it. It is possible for faerie heritage to capriciously skip generations as its driven into dormancy by banality. This is less common in rural Wales than many other locales, however. There are some small villages where practically everyone has at least a little faerie blood in them...though sometimes this heritage breeds its own form of madness.
