Concerning Halflings

Arthur Rackham

Halflings are called so, being roughly half the height of men. They interact with men only when necessity dictates. They otherwise confine themselves to their farmlands and comfortable homes. They are happiest when either tilling the soil, or entertaining a few guests at their table. Despite their small size, their appetites and capacity for consumption are something to be marveled at. They put their trust in Phusis, goddess of all things growing, above all others.

There is a settlement of Halflings in Freehold, where the humans most closely share their sensibilities. Their homeland is on a small island, across the Northren sea.
