Hin (Halfling, Halflings)
Halflings fit into dwarven, gnome, elven, and human societies wherever they can, often leaving little or no impression on their neighbors. The halflings prefer it this way, so they can live their lives as they want without interference. Most non-halflings forget about far-away Luiren and its population of militant and territorial halflings.
Racial History
Halflings are one of the “newcomer” races, appearing on Toril shortly after the advent of the creator races and at about the same time as dwarves, elves, and giants. History does not record exactly where the first halflings appeared, but it is thought to be somewhere south of the Shaar. Few halflings were seen in the Western Heartlands until the years immediately following the Hin Ghostwars, and most of these were wandering lightfoot halflings. Since then, halflings have become a familiar sight in numerous human communities, and certainly on the roads that crisscross the distances between the great cities. Most of the halflings that Faerûnians encounter are of the lightfoot subrace, but both the strongheart and the ghostwise are not unknown outside their native lands.
