Halflings

All the exuberance and joy of life in a package half the size. While the term “halfling” may seem somewhat, well, belittling, the term is still apt. In almost all respects a halfling resembles a human at half scale, measuring only about 3 feet tall. Underfoot and out of mind, to halflings the world is filled with giants, and it’s often best not to draw undue attention.
  Despite their stature halflings tend to be on the stout and full-bodied side, weighing more than might be expected. They usually have tan or pale ruddy skin but might have anywhere from pale tones to dark browns, and they have a propensity for long and curly brown or auburn hair. Male halflings often grow thick bushy sideburns but other facial hair is usually relegated to the occasional scruffy whiskers.
  Their non-threatening stature and generally pleasant demeanor has served them well throughout the generations, and while an individual may have a grudge with one halfling or another, the halflings as a people have stayed well away from most wars and conflicts. Halflings are lucky that way—and it often feels like luck is integral to who they are. Somehow when the chips are down and everything has gone wrong, it’s always the little halfling that walks away without a scratch.
