	A '''Gypsy''' is a member of the Romani peoples, a traditionally itinerant ethnic group hailing from the northern subcontinent of India who, for some reason, migrated out into Europe and then America. Long stereotyped as mystics, entertainers, thieves and vagabonds, the term "gypsy" is actually considered racially charged these days... even though that's what ''they'' call ''themselves''. Unfortunately, much of the ire against them stems from their old-world cultural habits, like selling out the locations of survivor enclaves so that the Pope and the King of France could rape your ancestors to death during a little spat called the Thirty Years War. This made a lot of people upset, and for many years after this Gypsy's were considered highly fashionable as tree ornaments and wind chimes. But, in the 80s and 90s, the exoticness of the Romani saw "gypsies" appearing in various /tg/ media.

	In the [[World of Darkness]], there was an actual Gypsy sourcebook released. It is widely considered to be one of the most ridiculously offensive splatbooks that [[White Wolf]] ever put out, even compared to the book on Holocaust ghosts for [[Wraith: The Oblivion]] (which at least went out of its way to give the actual facts of that ~~particular~~ episode of mass murder and tried to discuss the details in a way that were, if not tasteful, then at least as truthful as the situation allowed), complete with "blood purity" stats for your special Gypsy powers.		In the [[World of Darkness]], there was an actual Gypsy sourcebook released back in 1994. Unimaginatively named ''Gypsies'', it is widely considered to be one of the most ridiculously offensive splatbooks that [[White Wolf]] ever put out, even compared to ''Charnel Houses of Europe: The Shoah'', the book on Holocaust ghosts for [[Wraith: The Oblivion]] (which at least went out of its way to give the actual facts of that particularly infamous episode of mass murder and tried to discuss the details in a way that were, if not tasteful, then at least as truthful as the situation allowed), complete with "blood purity" stats for your special Gypsy powers.

	Being based off of Universal/Hammer Horror Films, where the "gypsy seer/mystic/thug" was a stock character, [[Ravenloft]] is naturally home to the [[Vistani]], a race of eerie, magical gypsies who are treated as being an entirely different species of creature to humans - that's why you can only play their [[Half-Vistani]] offspring. In the days of [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]], it was also home to the Gypsy class, a [[rogue]] subclass that was added to the register of [[thief]] and [[bard]] in "Domains of Dread".

	Gyspies feature in ''[[The Forest Oracle]]'', AKA the worst module TSR ever published. There they serve as a ~~bizzare~~ and badly designed tacked on final encounter to the already bizzare and badly executed module. They want the PCs to rescue their [[Pegasus]] (how they got it is never explained) from an [[Ogre]] that has a golem capable of discerning gypsies (how he got it is never explained) and mind control the PCs into doing it, no save, without reward if they refuse (how they got this ability is never explained).

	[[Spelljammer]] is home to the [[Aperusa]], who seem to be literally every bad stereotype of gypsies as traveling thieves and con-artists turned up a few notches. To avoid the mistakes of Ravenloft, the Aperusa are presented as a human culture within [[Wildspace]], not their own distinct race; as such, players could even be aperusa themselves, with aperusa being handled as one of the [[kits]] in [[The Complete Book of\|The Complete Spacefarer's Handbook]]		[[Spelljammer]] is home to the [[Aperusa]], who seem to be literally every bad stereotype of gypsies as traveling thieves and con-artists turned up a few notches.
