Aquatic Halflings
This race is descended from a group of halflings that were changed during the Chaos Wars to gain the aquatic subtype. They now prefer to live near, on or below the water surface.
While a group of young halflings was swimming off the coast of Animus, they were swept out to sea by a riptide and knocked unconscious. When they were finally found, they had gained an affinity for water and had the aquatic subtype.
