Halfling race

Overview
Halflings are clever, capable and resourceful survivors. They are notoriously curious and show a daring that many larger people can’t match.

Halflings are Halfling type monsters.

Description
Halflings typically stand about 3 feet tall, and weigh only 30-35 pounds. Skin color ranges from a dark tan to ruddy, and eye color is typically black or brown. Their hair is usually black, and falls straight. Males often wear long sideburns, but beards are rare and mustaches almost unheard of. Halflings are considered adults at the age of 20 and usually live into their second century.

In the Eberron setting, there are two distinct types of Halfling - the standard, civilised Khorvaire Halfling, and the dinosaur-riding barbarians of the Talenta Plains.

Combat
They often favor thrown weapons or light weapons such as shortswords, but can also be spellcasters.
