Avatar - A term used for a mortal who is merged with a Child of Oberon through magic.

History

The mortal in question becomes more like that Child of Oberon in appearance, and is also freely able to use the powers of that faerie. The one known instance of such an event was when first Jackal, and then, the Emir, became the avatar of Anubis through the magic of the Scroll of Thoth. Each one developed a jackal’s head and gained the full use of Anubis’s powers; when they spoke, Anubis’s voice could even be heard in the background, repeating those same words. In both cases, the human who had become avatar was in command, Anubis presumably being dormant. One might speculate that Goliath came very, very close to becoming an avatar of Odin after donning the Eye of Odin in Norway.
