"Nomadic explorers, Halflings are the natural born adventurers. Always on the move and never wanting to stay in a place to long, they are generally overlooked by most other races simply because of their seeming lack of impact on the world. They are part of no major nation and haven't made any great advancement, and there are certainly no standout warriors. They are just happy to follow along and live a care free lifestyle full of new experiences. Not especially looking to complicate their lives with the spotlight. Hovering around the upper 3ft to low 4ft range, Halflings look pretty much like smaller humans aside from their very rounded ears."

"If you were to sum up humans in a single word, it would be impactful. From the fall of the Draconic Empire, the horrors of the Forgotten War, and the revolution of the Trade Age, humans have been a driving force through history, always seeming to be in the center what is happening. Humans have a motivation rivaled only by the Gnomes. Usually in the upper 5ft to lower 6ft range, humans come in shades of pale peaches to lighter blacks."

"Vicious hunters of the waters, these brutes group together in huge tribes that viciously hunt anything humanoid like. While in large groups, they act very much like a hive mind, working together for the hunt. But when individuals are separated for a time, they will find themselves unwelcome back to the group. That time away from the pack usually allows the individual to grow their own personality outside of the pack, making them adopt a lone lifestyle. They have large mouth and small eyes. Their hands and feet are finned, but what allows them to swim fastest is their long tail with a fin on the end."
