Tricksters are a sort of sub-class of Oberon's Children.

Characteristics

Tricksters have a bent for cunning schemes and clever stratagems, achieving their ends through considerable wiliness. The exact nature of the trickery varies, however, depending upon the precise nature of the trickster; some tricksters are purely out for themselves, such as Raven and Anansi, while others show some concern for humans and assist them, such as Coyote - and perhaps Puck.

Known tricksters among the Third Race include Anansi, Coyote, Puck, and Raven. However, it is doubtful that the trickster-role is limited to Oberon's Children, since Xanatos, for one, displays prominently the traits of a trickster.
