Halfling
Half a human.
Halflings are a race of short, docile, inoffensive demihumans native to the various realms of Dungeons & Dragons. Whilst they tend to have a particular adeptness at thievery, if only due to their small stature makling it easy to sneak around or go underestimated, they are traditionally considered as a race to be more interested in simple pleasures than becoming Adventurers.
Despite the shared naming convention, halflings are a full-blooded race, not one of humanity's many halfbreed spawn, although jokes about the nature of "Lings" and "Quarterlings" (halfling/human hybrids) are pretty old. They are no relation to Half-Goblins, although that could be an interesting racial redesign for them.
