Halflings

Created by Taas on The Heartland, halflings are pleasant folk, happy to be home and enjoy the simpler things. Life is easiest and simplest when at home, and they are more than willing to support their local friends and family. However, like Tolkien's hobbits, they are surprisingly capable when put to task.
While some are intensely curious about other races, most are quite content to keep their noses out of other peoples' business. With that said, they will gladly treat travelers with free drinks in exchange for gossip.

Interspecies Relations and Assumptions

Aasimar

A rare sight, and a lucky one at that! Send a prayer to Altir that the luck will stick!

Dragonborn

The baubles and other shiny things dragonborn collect make them look a bit silly, don't you think? And so impractical.

Dwarves

Now these folk can create! Makes you wonder why they had to make off with those airships.

Elves

A bit nosey, really.

Firbolgs

Now those are nice folk. We share a common love for all things that grow.

Gnomes

Poor things. That whole Changing of Hands thing was so brutish. I do hope they all learn to get along.

Goliaths

Goliaths tower over most folk, especially halflings.

Humans

Such a varied bunch! Mustn't trust a book by its cover.

Tieflings

Old wives tales abound regarding tieflings. Some say that they eat children who don't do their chores!
