3.5 Halfling (Herregor Supplement)

This diminutive race is also a product of the changing energies of the Shattering. They too have formed their own culture, but find it much easier to mingle amongst both of the other races of “near men”. Even today they often act as emissaries, go-betweens, and traders between the human and dwarven nations. They have developed a nomadic culture that flows along the merchant routes and trade roads of the world.
