nWoD to GURPS - Changeling the Lost

That'd still be Morph or Alternate Form. The Fae template would need a form of See Invisible with True Sight (I believe that's the correct modifier...) to see through the illusion.

General note: I'm not statting up full abilities here, just offering suggestions for base advantages. Full write-ups will have be done by those who know the setting and what's appropriate...

Mind Control is not an uncontested ability. The Emotion Control would not happen automatically.

Of course, a Changeling that does this without warning at very least will be loathed by his fellows (which is less than ideal if you are a escapee from an alien realm) and at the worst will face Changeling justice.

Then I think this ability is a little beyond me. Maybe Modular Abilities?

Then it looks like Special Recharge, -70% with Either/or Limitations.

I can't remember how many you listed (I'll go back and look in a moment), but let's say four:

.7 * .7 * .7 * .7 = .24 or a -24% limitation. Apparently, there are many more ways to recharge the ER. Thirteen distinct ways to recharge the ER will put you at Special Recharge as a Feature. The ER doesn't recharge automatically, but it can be recharged through any of many different ways.

The flip side of doing this is that it leaves behind fewer traces than emotion hunting (costantly hanging around cemeteries to get grief from crying widows and orphans is going to attract attention, sooner or later).

That would still be Jumper (Spirit) (with Accessibility, "Only on those with the appropriate Pledge or Contract") to enter the dreams. Then tapping the emotional energy would be Mind Control (Emotions Only), followed by one Special Recharge on the ER.

Mechanically speaking, a brownie has a pledge with a family: the milk they give him not only feeds him, but also restores his Glamour, because it's a form of payment for his work. I don't think it works with normal money, but maybe a modern Changeling could make a similar pledge and pretend a beer for his trouble.

Again, another form of Special Recharge on the ER.
