Message: <blockquote data-quote="Maxperson" data-source="post: 8181018" data-attributes="member: 23751">It mentions that some do acquire wealth and not all rogues look for trouble.  Rogue is just a set of skills.  They are not all trouble makers and thieves.  Those skills just lend themselves to the type that is often a trouble maker or thief.And it says this, "Halflings who take up a life of adventure are emboldened by the stories told by their elders- tales of halfling heroes slinking through human cities, plundering dungeons laden with treasure, and being received in the hall of a dwarven king."And..."A halfling who has retired after a life of adventuring might own mementos as diverse as a spoon from Sigil's Great Bazaar, a pan pilfered from an elven kitchen in Evermeet, a rake received as a gift from a svirfneblin mushroom tender in the Underdark, and the scale of a white dragon acquired from its lair."So clearly treasure acquisition and even theft part of the adventuring make-up of Halfings.  The picture on page 105 of Mordenakinen's is most likely a rogue getting treasure, and looking pretty pleased to find it.As for rangers, the PHB says this, " Though some halflings live out their days in remote agricultural communities, others form nomadic bands that travel constantly, lured by the open road and the wide horizon to discover the wonders of new lands and peoples." Nomads need hunters and trackers to survive.  That means rangers as a prime profession for adventuring Halflings that come from those bands.</blockquote>
