Halfling

ATTRIBUTES Lifespan: Upwards of a hundred and eighty years. Ears are thin and slanted slightly up and backwards Common eye color: amber, gold, green, and grey Common height: 3’2”-4’10” Common hair color: black, brown, blonde The Halflings are a very old race that was around long before the Dawn of RoNaan. They prefer to live far away from humans and elves, sticking to their difficult to reach homelands. Unlike most of the realm, the Halflings were not fond of RoNaan but nevertheless respected what his March to Arannova stood for.
Unlike most of the monotheistic and polytheistic religions throughout RoNaan's Realm, the halflings do not believe in gods per se, but of eternal spirits that reside in everything. They build their homes out of natural materials and are known for their exquisitely detailed elemental manipulation. They call many of the realm's swamps, forests, jungles, and caves home. And where halflings dwell, pixys swarm. The two species have always lived side by side and though they do not share Bonds, they have forged something even stronger: an eternal friendship. By giving the pixys a way to keep their freedom, halflings have formed an incredible alliance.
By no means pacifists, halflings, however, have always known to pursue some form of diplomacy before committing themselves to war or skirmishes or conflicts of any kind. They are willing to compromise, but would never let themselves be forced into something they do not want. The halflings, hidden in landscapes difficult to navigate and fight in, are hard to beat due mainly to their use of guerrilla style warfare. Known to use poison tipped weapons and surprise attacks then immediate retreats, halflings are truly a force to be reckoned with.
MISCELLANEOUS The halflings were the ones who created and legitimized Pixy Contracts. Halflings, though found throughout RoNaan's Realm, are said to have originated in Orcosea. It is said that halflings have formed a Guild of Assassins that can be bought for an outrageous price but guaranteed to fulfill any contract that falls into their lap. Halflings are attuned to the Low and Middling Elements.
