Halflings are among
the smallest of the civilized races in Elanthia, tending
to be short and rotund. They have large feet endowed
with luxuriant hair and often travel barefoot. They
have an insatiable capacity for enjoying the simple
pleasures of life, such as good food (mostly tarts),
drink and companionship. They also have an inquisitive
manner that frequently lands them in awkward situations,
though their clever minds usually hatch some sort of
plan to get them out of trouble.
They are very agile and move about
well. They have a cast-iron constitution, but lack physical
strength making them better at spell casting than hand-to-hand
combat. This is not to say that a halfling will make
a poor warrior. One of the most famous halflings in
Elanthian history is a warrior named Talbot Dabbings,
who saved Wehnimer's Landing from the Krolvin by slaying
their leader over 150 years ago.

Did you know? Halflings
are meticulous about grooming their foot hair, often
making sure every strand is tidy and clean.
