Halflings are a diminutive people as diverse and widespread as humans, though only half as tall. What they lack in stature, they make up for in bravery and nimbleness, and many halfling heroes have made their name as adventurers. They tend to enjoy the simple pleasures of life and prefer quiet, unobtrusive living but when duty calls, they will often endure and persevere long after the stronger, larger species have faltered. Halflings share the same skin tones and hair colors as humans, though their eyes tend to be a tint brighter. They can be found in every climate, city, and biome and are well integrated into nearly every society.

Halflings share the same skin tones and hair colors as humans, though their eyes tend to be a tint brighter. They can be found in every climate, city, and biome and are well integrated into nearly every society.


Though halflings don’t share a singular culture so much as other more insular lineages, they are well known and well respected for their singing, music, and art. Their calm, carefree nature, which most often dominates later in life, often leads elder halflings to creative pursuits as they typically retain a bit more energy and wherewithal than their human cousins.
