Sharpwit Halfling
Sharpwit Halfling
For Sharpwits, the typical Halfling love for life and happiness is expressed through intense curiosity and inquiry. These Halflings instinctively desire to understand all the wonders of the world around them, and will insatiably devour any knowledge they come across just as another Halfling might a hearty dinner.
As fast as their minds run, their mouths often tend to run even faster. Sharpwits adore clever jokes, puns, and pranks of all kinds, but are just as dedicated to the more serious tasks they undertake. Many Sharpwits are skilled engineers, alchemists, tinkers, and inventors. They’re willing to make mistakes and laugh at themselves in the process of perfecting what they do, taking bold (sometimes foolhardy) risks and dreaming large.

The device ceases to function after 24 hours (unless you spend 1 hour repairing it to keep the device functioning), or when you use your Action to dismantle it; at that time, you can reclaim the materials used to create it. You can have up to three such devices active at a time. When you create a device, choose one of the following options:
Clockwork Toy. This toy is a clockwork animal, monster, or person, such as a frog, mouse, bird, dragon, or soldier. When placed on the ground, the toy moves 5 feet across the ground on each of your turns in a random direction. It makes noises as appropriate to the creature it represents.
Fire Starter. The device produces a miniature flame, which you can use to light a candle, torch, or campfire. Using the device requires your Action.
Music Box. When opened, this music box plays a single song at a moderate volume. The box stops playing when it reaches the song’s end or when it is closed.
