Wanderlust Halfling (Kember)

Anatomy

Wanderlust Halflings are built for moving like the winds of caprice that carry them from place to place: willowy, light-footed and quick-handed. They tend to wear their hair long and their childlike faces bely a cunning nature as rogues and gypsies; their hair, eyes and skin color ranges as much as Humans. Much thinner than their cousins the Hearth Halflings, they look much more like children except for their sinewy muscles and knowing smiles. Most prefer loose, bright clothing and scarves, though some can be found in leather and other armor on their more dangerous wanderings.

Habitat

Kember are by nature inveterate wanderers and therefore have no habitat. They range all over the lands and seas of Creacia and only find respite when on the move.

Origin

Along with the other Feyfolk, Kember were created when Fey magic entered Creacia after the Dawning and the creation of the Dwarves, but before Humans, the Beastien and the Shadowborn. Similar to their cousins the Koemfer, it is believed their ancestors were Elven children taken by mischievous Pixies and mixed with Fey blood; but unlike those same cousins, they were given to the wind and raised wild and without regard for rule or law in accordance with the capricious nature of Pixies. Since before the First Ruination they have been roaming the land, sometimes in bands of Kember and sometimes in groups of other opportunists and travelers, always seeking adventure, some coin, and above all else, some good laughs.

Culture

Although they are constantly on the move, Wanderlust Halflings have a rich culture full of stories passed onto their children and traditions known as Romperstompers. They also learn Kembersign, a secret sign language, from the time before they can talk. They are anarchists by nature and have very little social structure beyond an occasional matron or patron leading a small band--until they decide to leave themselves on a Wanderbout.
