Halfling

In many ways, Halflings resemble small Humans and usually have the same proportions as the typical Human adult.

Basic Information

Behaviour

Halflings are by nature joyful and friendly in their dealings with others. Because they live in a world where they were surrounded by larger creatures, halflings tend to avoid notice, often deliberately. Halflings appear deceptively harmless, meaning they were often beyond the notice of enemies that might otherwise pose a threat to them.   The halfling mind is practical and halflings concern themselves with their immediate surroundings. They take pleasure in simple things, with few aspiring to greatness in the same manner as humans. Some halflings do become adventurers, but usually this was a practice taken up for reasons of necessity rather than personal drive. Because of their love for home and family, halflings make loyal and courageous allies, willing to put their own lives at risk for the sake of others. This is also why the god of the home and harth, Frigg, is portrayed as a halfling   Halflings are courageous, more so than many races, and their daring is often difficult to match. Many halflings also have a strong appetite for food and drink as well as narcotics, to the point they can have addictive personalities.

Civilization and Culture

Culture and Cultural Heritage

Halfling communities are tightly knit groups found around the world, usually near the settlements of other races. Halflings also value a sense of community; halflings naming each other "halfling" is a salute of brotherhood.   Halfling culture has a fondness for stories and legends and is rich in the oral tradition. So much care put into the retelling of stories and their preservation that halflings often unwittingly have access to lore about ancient and long-gone cultures or empires that others have long since forgotten about. However they are also able to make gossip and recent news events seem like stories of old to the point that people overhearing one of their stories as childrens bedtime stories or great novels of old.
