Homebrew Elfling Species Details

Elfling features are a curious mix of halfling and elvish. They are shorter than most humans, ranging from four to just over five feet tall. They are usually a bit stockier than either of their parent races, the women especially so. Their coloration range is similar to a human's, though eye color is a bit more diverse thanks to their elvish heritage.

Elflings live around half a millennia. Many struggle to make close friends in other races, living far longer than halflings but far shorter than elves. Nevertheless, they are kind to all they meet, even if they are a bit closed off.

Most elflings are from the forest kingdom of Alia. As such, they are familiar with the woods there, as well as they feywild that so often intersects with the Great Western Forest. They are great artisans like their elvish kin, and excellent tinkerers driven by curiosity. They do have a knack for magic, but many elflings don't give it much thought.

Elflings are natural adventurers that strike out on their own for a whole host of reasons. Some still bear the wanderlust of the elves. Others seek like-minded people, finding themselves isolated by both elvish and halfling cultures. And sometimes, elflings simply wish to do as much good as much as they possibly can.
