Editing Halfling (section)

===3rd Party Settings===
;World of Farland
In the [[World of Farland]], halflings, or ''hositan'' as they call themselves, use the standard PHB racial traits... but, there's also the subsetting "War of Immortals", which is set back in the ancient past of the setting. Here, halfling culture is literally just forming - halflings were only just recently recognized as being ''people'' instead of '''pets''' by the [[dwarf|dwarves]], who are rather embarrassed about the whole matter, and there are two unique subraces. The core race is identical to the 5e version above, but the subraces are different. ''Outsiders'', also known as ''Shire-Dwellers'', are the original halfling stock; they get +1 Constitution and have the Lightfoot's Naturally Stealthy racial trait. ''Insiders'' are halflings who were bred as pets by the dwarves until recently; they get +1 Charisma and the unique trait "Learned", which grants them Proficiency in and Advantage on two skills of their choice from a list of Animal Handling, Arcana, History, Investigation, Medicine, Nature, Performance, Persuasion and Religion.

;Scarred Lands
In the [[Scarred Lands]], halflings mostly live in small, insular agrarian villages and are fearful of strangers, as they've been often enslaved by nobles and tyrants. In general they try to keep themselves out of sight from other races and nations. Only recently has the Calastian Hegemony given them a homeland, the Heteronomy of Virduk, and many halfling slaves in the hegemony are given the option to buy out their contracts in return for a decade of military service. The halfings of Scarn all use the following stats:

;Midgard
In [[Midgard]], originally, the most notable thing about halflings was the existence of the '''Winterfolk''', badass neo-[[Viking]] hunters and trappers who inhabit the cold, windswept hillocks of the Rothenanian Plains, where they ride great cats and prey on the local monsters for meat, leather, bone, tusks, antlers and pelts. These were the only variety to get stats in the original Midgard Heroes Handbook. Then the Tome of Heroes came along and added four more halfling subraces; '''Courtfolk''' used to be the slaves of the elves and still cling to the remaining [[elf]] and [[Shadow Fey]] territories. '''Hinterfolk''' are fiercely territorial tribal hunter-gatherers from the [[Southlands]]. '''Riverfolk''' are basically 4e/[[Nentir Vale]] halflings, being boat-dwelling river-rats who make their living plying the streams, lakes and swamps of the world. Finally, '''Urban Halflings''' have spent so long surviving in the [[human]]-dominated cities that they have become their own distinct thing from their Lightfoot ancestors.
