Hobbit (Races Help)

Though they call themselves Hobbits, most others refer to this race as 'Halflings' due to their diminutive stature - shorter than a dwarf. They are known for their quietness and ability to move around without being noticed, as well as for their massive appetites and potential for mischief. While they are not very strong or know much about magic, Hobbits are quick on their feet and have excellent aim. Being a simple people, they often employ their skills as nimble thieves.

Hobbits take joy in simple pleasures: eating, celebrating minor events, and smoking pipeweed (a practice that other races have begun imitating). Some live in Breeland among the Big Folk, but most Hobbits in Middle-earth can be found in the Shire, a rustic, peace-loving land far from the battlefields of the South. While they are not formal participants in the War abroad, four of their own took part in the Council of Elrond and the rest do their part to keep their homes safe.

Hobbits speak the common tongue known as Westron.
