Halflings are roughly the same size as Gnomes, but it is quite easy to tell them apart, Halflings never grow beards and usually seem to be laughing with people, rather than Gnomes who seem to laugh at them. Halflings look like small versions of Kumbrith Men, but always beardless. In the Reach they are generally Lawful, good followers of Church and High King and live in their own villages in the Earldoms of Sinxth and Tunburg. Halflings have no language of their own and speak the Common Tongue as their native language. Halflings have been known to be Spiritual Clerics (and sometimes Druids in certain other regions) and various sorts of Jacks, even occasionally Warriors, but never seem to take up Mage-craft. There are also tribes of Dark Halflings who were corrupted to Chaos, but there are no communities of them in the Starkpool Reach.
