Now, I'll admit halflings need a better shtick - mechanically and flavor wise - but in general a quick little roguish race is the kind I'd prefer to play.Not kender though. I wouldn't play a halfling like a kender, unless perhaps it's mental scores were really bad.  There's some other options too, if you like kender but still want your hobbits you can have them as closely related subraces, that have little to no mechanical difference. Or just different cultures: the roaming adventuresome bands that stay lean and athletic, or the stay at home types who take it easy and put on a bit more weight. And of course for halflings, the sedentary lifestyle promotes hair growth on their feet.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> That would be a nice racial ability for halflings specifically, call it "quick stride" or somesuch. They would still have the same overland speed, and maybe the same limit when flat out running, but their move action is the full 30'. Or have a fast movement talent tree for the rogue that does this, which would in a sense make the class "favored" for halflings and other short folk.</blockquote>
