Halflings

Introduction

Halflings are a race of short humanoids residing primarily in Mapledale and various other scattered regions all over Eden. They are renowned for their excellent produce and the ability to have the most exotic wares available for a reasonable price.

The trading caravans of the Halflings tend to go wherever the humans of Hadriana go. They follow the Hadrian traders passing through Mapledale and offer their services and excellent cooking recipes and only ask for mere protection from bandits in return.

But under this seemingly harmless shell lies something way more sinister. The Halflings of Mapledale are divided amongst the many influential families. These families control the flow of wealth throughout the Halfling realm and are in a constant heated competition with one another over control of the many prosperous trade routes.

Halflings are often discriminated against by other races, particularly Denur and Elves, who believe that the Halfling is the misformed result of crossbreeding between Denur and Humans. It is a common belief that all Halflings are thieves.
