== History ==

Industrious, earthy and true, boggans are the glue that keep [[Kithain]] society together. Ever ready to lend a helping hand and sympathetic ear, boggans are wise enough to realize that even the mightiest heroes need a place to sleep, nite to eat and the occasional parcel of goods to set them on their way. THey are more than happy to oblige them.

Boggans claim they were the result of mortals wishing they has extra hands to help around the house, or just a helper who worked quickly and didn't complain to much. Tireless workers who hold by a store of common sense and household wisdom, boggans see themselves as the force that makes the larger achievements of the [[Kithain]] possible, taking as much pride in a simple well-kept cottage as a [[sidhe]] lord might have over an entire chimerical manor. It's all a questionof scale, and boggans have suited their own more to their stature. As the hearth-keepers and tavern owners of the [[Kithain]], their reputation for gossip almost rivals that of their craftswork.

Preferring comfort over fashion, boggan choose clothes that are often subdued when compared to those of other [[:category:kiths|kith]] (although a boggan with a hand for sewing can rival the finest [[sidhe]] designers.) In their [[fae]] forms, boggans tend to be short, with large, callused hands, twinkling eyes and large noses. They tend toward plumpness, with bushy hair and eyebrows. Most also have a second pair of eyebrows on their foreheads.

 Known as [[boggarts]], [[Unseelie]] boggans are often those who have been betrayed or hurt as a result of their attempts to help others. They will avenge any slight—real or imagined—with a fervor that causes even redcaps to quake in their boots. Some set out to test how truly virtuous a person is, often undoing the work of others or constantly plaguing a victim with annoying cantrips to see what the limits of his patience are. Anyone who withstands this onslaught of mischief with a sunny disposition intact will be respected and often feared by the boggart and her companions henceforth.
-While many [[Seelie]] boggans try to deny the [[Unseelie]] part of their natures, nearly all boggans spend at least part of their lives ruled by their [[Unseelie Legacy]]. It is unfortunate, but few mortals or [[Kithain]] who devote their lives to helping others avoid being taken advantage of at one point or another. When this happens to a [[Seelie]] boggan, she will often fly into a rage, seeking vengeance on not only the one who wronged her, but anyone else who would abuse the kindness of others. Such is their desire to punish, these [[Unseelie]] boggans often see wrongs where there are none, and tonnent innocents instead.

 Most hoggans have a distinctly earthy [[mien]], and are reluctant to draw attention to themselves. Though not vain, they respect craftsmanship, and often wear simple but finely wrought jewelry and clothing. Usually short and on the plump side, boggans are recognizable by their particularly bushy eyebrows.
-In their faerie guises, most boggans have an old yet sprightly appearance, with even [[childlings]] showing faint laugh lines around their eyes and mouths that deepen with age. Understandably, many boggans have a certain weariness about them, but it is generally of a pleasant sort. [[Grumps]] tend to age quickly, with their bright eyes belying the wrinkles creasing their brows.

		+	In many areas, boggans have periodic informal gatherings to swap gossip or tips on crafting. Sometimes this takes the form of a potluck dinner, where each boggan brings a dish and a piece of "news" — the more savory the better for both. Many such gatherings have adopted a policy that each person washes only her own dishes, after several such dinners broke out in fisticuffs over who was to wash what. Some argued that the host of the party should rest and let the others "take care of the clean-up," while often the host would claim it as his right and duty to tidy the place up while the guests had dessert.

		+	Letter-writing is another common means for boggans to stay in touch with each other. Some areas have newsletters or telephone circles used to pass the word about a particularly good sale at Home Depot or an especially juicy bit of gossip. Other, more technically minded boggans now

 Even those who follow the [[Unseelie Court]] will help out a soul in need, though their idea of "help" sometimes leaves the subject wishing she had never asked. Boggarts will often berate those they help for having gotten themselves in a fix to begin with, and insist that "if it weren't for me happening by just now, you'd have been a goner for sure!"

+It should come as no surprise that boggans are among the most infamous meddlers and busybodies in all of [[Kithain]] society. They always seem to know who fancies who, and who is nursing a secret grudge. In fact, this is in some ways an extension of boggan craftsmanship, as understanding the way people function in a group is made up of equal parts observation and "common sense."
