[QUOTE="jmartkdr2, post: 8207890, member: 7017304"] My sea-halflings come to mind: A group of halfling pirates find out their favorite haven is going to be destroyed by the Imperial Navy, so they pack up all their favorite stuff form said haven and load it on to recently stolen giant ships to go find a new place to rest. But as they sail the giant-sized warships, they quickly learn that having a [I]mobile[/I] haven is actually way better, and start building a society where everyone is at sea, all the time. This includes switching to jewelry as a way of storing wealth (much more compact than coins), lots of public education (to keep kids out of the way), a strong sense of respecting privacy, and a very deeply ingrained discipline (form living on ships). They eventually switch form piracy to shipping, since the halfling ships are the only one who don't get attacked by the very experience sea halfling pirates. I also had savanna halflings who built their homes on elephants and used ostriches for outriders, and dog-sled-based tundra/taiga halflings. [/QUOTE]
