Changeling: The Lost is the fifth supplementary role-playing game line published by White Wolf Publishing. It uses the Storytelling System for rules and is set in the Chronicles of Darkness setting. Changeling is the second limited game published by White Wolf after Promethean: The Created, but in April 2008 it was announced that because of the success of the line it would be an extended limited series not limited to five books.[1] Since then, three full hard-cover books were published: Equinox Road, Dancers in the Dusk, and Swords at Dawn. Goblin Markets, available only on PDF, was also created.[2] This was followed by the setting book Victorian Lost.

The game is primarily inspired by tales of changelings from European folklore but includes elements of similar stories from around the world. While superficially similar to the Classic World of Darkness game Changeling: The Dreaming, Changeling: The Lost approaches the legends from a more traditional perspective of mortals kidnapped by Fae and eschews the past life angle that characterized its predecessor.

In 2014, Onyx Path Publishing announced the game's second edition,[3] which released on January 16, 2019.
