You could have their Blessing apply to Persuasion rolls while in a body of water. For their Trickery. . . that's trickier. Although you'd like to avoid copy-pasting, the Nightsinger kith might have what you're looking for. What is the purpose of the Nix? Fleshing out why the Gentry would turn someone into this kith, or the types of people suited for it, might usher inspiration....

I just wanted to pop in and say that I really dig the Kheru in this edition. Although I had nothing against them before, the Lion-Headed never really grabbed me in the same way as they do now. Their description alone has already inspired me to an interesting character concept I'd love to play.

Do you mean like framing someone for a crime? That would depend on how you go about it. Larceny could be used to slip evidence onto the mark's person; Computer would come in for doing the same thing on one of their e-devices. Persuasion or Subterfuge would be necessary if you're insinuating to others that they're somehow involved in shady dealings, while you'd need Politics to make it a bureaucratic problem.

Good catch with that. Readjusting now. . ....

Since it's revived, here's a conversion that I came up with a while back:

Woodwalker
Lost? Can't say the term's ever been my cup of tea.

Arcadia is land of sweeping, majestic beauty; it is also a realm of hidden dangers lurking in trees, caves, and mires. The landscape shifts according the whims of its Fae owner, or based on a set of Byzantine, arcane rules. Sometimes not even the Gentry can manage to keep up, or they'd rather just have one of their changeling captives take care of guiding the others through blasted wastelands or windswept deserts. That's where...

Happy Halloween everyone. Here's a bit of a spooky Token to celebrate. Personally, I wouldn't go around reading books written by the Gentry, but I suppose that's really your own judgment call to make.

The Persimmon Grimoire (•••)

This black-and-gray-covered tome was stolen from the vast and sprawling library of a Fae that calls itself the Scholar of Ashen Lead, a spectral being that hungers for secret and forbidden knowledge of all kinds. The story of how one of the Keeper’s wayward servants, a Darkling Notary, managed to make off with the Token in his escape back to...

There still isn't anything official for mermaids, selkies, or Creature From the Black Lagoon-type monsters, though to be honest that could easily be folded into a game about aliens (outsiders in an unfamiliar culture trying to blend in), and also runs into some logistical problems. Body-snatchers/Doppelgangers is an interesting idea. Something I think could be cool is a large Kickstarter-worthy book that contains 2nd Edition updates for a lot of the blue books, like Inferno, Second Sight, Changing Breeds, etc. That would obviously come with its own logistical problems (What if you really only...

WATP = War Against the Pure, a Werewolf book which includes a section on other types of animal shifters....
