History

Halfling Genesis

Brandobaris a human god known for his cunning and audacity hatched a plan to outwit Surtur. He successfully infiltrated Surtur's hoard, which contained exquisitely crafted artifacts of immense power. In an audacious heist, Brandobaris managed to steal from the hoard, causing Surtur to erupt in fury.   In his rage, Surtur cursed Brandobaris and all his followers, shrinking them down to the size of half-men. However, Brandobaris, true to his nature, took this drastic transformation lightly, even finding humor in it. Many gods, including Waukeen and Cyrrollalee, saw the curse as unjust, especially for Brandobaris's devoted followers.   In an act of solidarity and sympathy, Waukeen and Cyrrollalee decided to stand with Brandobaris and his followers. They willingly shrank themselves down to the size of halflings and bestowed their divine blessings upon the transformed humans. Waukeen blessed them with goft of luck to assist them in navigating the challenges of their newfound existence.
