[QUOTE="Mind of tempest, post: 8708637, member: 7029233"] why would they defend their homes they survive by hiding they would flee that is literally how they are meant to live, if they are not forced to flee they would be next to worthless as their food would be smashed as the point of demons and undead is they do not resupply on food thus their line can burn it all to the ground. a) that is the most unrealistic thing about the halfling-human relationship the humans would drive them to extinction for food and resources. b) they would flee and end up as refugees. that is a fair point but my counter is c) can't do that without removing the basic idea of halflings beyond being on the side of good and being small and gnomes are that technically. d) how much do you know about basic war logistics? e) given that say FR can't seem to go six months without a near end of the world this would not be a stable situation supply lines would run out fast thus halflings would have mostly been pushed away. f)I know exactly what idea based on and it sickens me at any attempt to rehabilitate it. [I]look your basic point on setting design I agree[/I] with but halflings are not better people than elves or dwarves why should they get to be the light? what makes them better than the rest of us? they are defined as being average and the average person is not good not evil but not good. [I]so what makes them so deserving to be the great good light what is so good about them?[/I] [/QUOTE]
