Covetous and frightening, the Fey of the World of Darkness are a lot more like the Svartalfs than the pixies of a Disney cartoon. If they were from a Disney cartoon, it would probably be the Night on Bald Mountain segment from Fantasia.
Mirror Goblins
“Everything is a scam to you, isn't it?”
“Damn right it is.”
The Mirror Goblins are hideous and seemingly subhuman. They are small and mishapen, and they have hideous hooked teeth and claws. Mirror Goblins are a lot like the Black Isz from The Maxx or the Mumblers from Silent Hill. Left to their own devices, they mostly wander around Limbo gibbering and periodically eating each other. However, they are also oppressed by more powerful residents of the Dark Reflection. Whipped into shape by stronger creatures and groups they are used as disposable fodder and monsters of the week by The King With Three Shadows and other Infernal groups. Since they have always have a Potency of zero, a Mirror Goblin can pass through any portal to Limbo, which is where they get their name: literally goblins who come into the Mortal World through mirrors.
While Mirror Goblins have strange pacmanesque mouths and rarely stand much over a meter tall, their muppetlike visages seem to have little difficulty being understood in human languages. When combined with their ability to magically disguise themselves, Mirror Goblins can actually penetrate human society with tolerable ease. They dare not stay long in the Mortal World though, because their power ritual can only be performed in Limbo. Mirror Goblins are generally regarded as being less than fully trustworthy.
A Mirror Goblin was never human and has a nonstandard attribute array. They don't have a Potency rating, and their stats are:
S: 1/4 A: 2/7 I: 1/6 L: 1/5 W: 1/4 C: 1/6
A Mirror Goblin has an Infernal power source and a Ritual power schedule.

Spriggans
“Why there's nothing under this mask but a neck and some tendons!”
Spriggans are hideous worm eaten things scarcely larger than a Mirror Goblin who can draw upon Infernal power to become massive killing machines. These beings look like hunks of maggot infested meat in an only barely humanoid shape, and they are quite boneless until they invoke their Giant Size and War Form, which are always enacted together. At that point their worms and flesh are pulled tight over a scaffold of long wet bones that end in sharp points in many places.
A Spriggan was never human and has a nonstandard attribute array. Their stats are:
S: 1/4 A: 1/6 I: 2/7 L: 1/6 W: 1/6 C: 1/6

Trolls
“Skin... Graaaaah.... Tasty.... ”
Within the prison world that is the Deep Reflection, hideous ogres prowl and punish or even murder those unlucky enough to fall into their clutches. But while they are the jailers of this foul realm, they are also its prisoners. Trolls spend almost every moment of their existence in agony and dejection, and eagerly take out their pains on others.
Hulking brutes with bulging musculature and an inhuman appearance, Trolls cannot actually turn their Giant Size off. These tortured giants of Limbo appear in literature as Tartarians and Pyramid Head. While they do eat people, they don't actually get anything for it except a meal. They rip the skin from their victims simply because they find enjoyment in doing so, not for the advancement of any mystical agenda.
Trolls have a fairly multivarious appearance, varying from merely oversized humans to lumpy stone skinned oni with tremendous tusks. These changes are generally speaking purely cosmetic. Trolls have no difficulty recognizing different Trolls as being the same as themselves.
Trolls have a nonstandard attribute array because they were never humans. Before their Potency modifier and their constant Giant Size, their attribute ranges are:
S: 5/10 A: 1/5 I: 1/5 L: 1/3 W: 3/8 C: 1/6
A Troll has an Infernal power source and a Continuous power schedule.
