[QUOTE="James Gasik, post: 8688518, member: 6877472"] I have a soft spot for "small" races, because the idea of a 3' tall person kicking ass and taking names amuses me. Hence why one of my long running characters is Royle Gladdenstone, "The World's Strongest Gnome". In my current campaign, I've replaced Halflings with "Smallkin" (also known as Lilka), who are a race related (somehow) to both Humans and Elves. Humans and Elves cannot interbreed with each other, but they can have children with Smallkin. Throughout history, where Humans go, Smallkin follow, and during the Elf Wars, where all the Elven nations went to war, they remained neutral. From my campaign document: "As their name suggests, Smallkin are about a foot and a half shorter on average than Humans, with slender builds and youthful features. Male Smallkin often sport mustaches and short beards to be taken a little more seriously. Smallkin have latent psionic abilities, which have helped them survive all manner of adversity, as well as a secret tradition of martial arts known as [I]Vetchkunst[/I], which is based around leaving the hands free for defense and attacking with powerful kicks, using tough-soled, reinforced shoes known as [I]strijdclogs[/I]."
