Description
Halflings are clever, capable opportunists. Depending on the clan, halflings might be reliable,
hard-working citizens, or they might be thieves just waiting for the opportunity to make a big
score and disappear in the dead of the night.
Halfling adventurers are typically looking for a way to use their skills to gain wealth or status.
The distinction between a halfling adventurer and a halfling just out to make a big score can be
blurry. While halfling opportunism can sometimes look like larceny or fraud to others, a halfling
adventurer who learns to trust his fellows is worthy of trust in return.
In the world of Eberron, halflings are nomads who ride domesticated dinosaurs across the wide
Talenta Plains. The heritage of the nomad also serves more urbanized halflings well, and halflings
have established themselves across Eberron as merchants, politicians, healers, and criminals. The
tribal nomads of the plains can sometimes be found in the cities, but often the halflings of the
cities blend in with the rest of the population and display only the occasional reminder of their
roots. Halflings are affiliated with the House Jorasco in Stormreach.
