Halfling Species in Elema | World Anvil

Halfling

Halflings are humble and curious creatures who frequently cause mischief, but they always seem to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. They are some of the happy people who are willing to attend parties, play games, and have a wonderful time. Especially where food is involved. Halflings eat as if they had three stomachs. Thank you for this; it is generally known throughout the world that they provide some of the greatest food available, so enjoy and have a good supper and a pleasant time with them.

Genetics and Reproduction

A male and a female member of that species are what conceive new Halflings. Nine months after the male fertilizes the female, a Halflings child is born. They stop being able to have kids around their 132 birthday

Growth Rate & Stages

Halflings are considered infants between the ages of zero to Six, during which time they were completely dependent on their parents for food and care. They gradually pick up mobility and world awareness.

The next stage is kids who learn, play, and grow between the ages of 7 to 14. Although kids are not as dependent on their parents at this point, they are still present to meet the majority of their needs. However, young kids are inquisitive and beginning to understand others and themselves. People have a saying that a young child always hears and retains. My favorite saying from my friends at the bar is “Kids are just little people who become truth drunks”.

Between the ages of 15 to 29, their bodies begin to evolve and develop into adults, which is referred to as the teenage years. Their physical body begins to gain figure, height, weight, and muscles. In most situations, this is also where natural magic develops. In most circumstances, they will also begin to establish their identity and become less reliant on their parents.

From the ages of 30 to 175, they are in their adulthood, their bodies have matured, and they have a good sense of what their natural magic will do. It will continue to develop as they age, but in most cases, it has a set of talents.

From 176 to roughly 220 years of age, they are elders; their bodies have gradually begun to slow down and become weaker, as have their magical talents if they are not kept up with. Other people regard them as wise because they have lived a lengthy life for a Halflings. This is the Halflings life cycle.
