Abyssal Halfling {Erethes}
Abyssal Halflings can be traced back to around the year 126 AV, Where they started appearing from the various cracks to the abyss that had started appearing. Their bloodline came from one of these cracks many years ago, And now their kind are a lot more common. Often called "Shadow Halflings" in addition to their official name, These folk are not widely known about and the people that do know about their existence barely know anything about them other than that.
Abyssal Halflings are almost exactly like normal halflings, With some key differences. For starters, Their skin color often appears much like the subterranean races, Such as Drow. Due to this, Their skin tones are limited to similar colors. Their hair can come in all of the normal halfling color ranges. Their eyes are often glowing like a dim light, And can be any color in the rainbow. Their connection to the abyss ends up giving them a strange presence, Most will see one and think something is off, But not actually be able to tell why they think that.
These Halflings were created when Halflings that were still in Althra when it was taken, Managed to escape the abyss, But were forever changed in the process. Most people don't know this, Not even the Abyssal Halflings themselves.
