The Fleetfoot Clan of Hin

The halflings call themselves Hin. The Hin are respectful of property and the dignity of others. They may feign innocence and/or stupidity to outsiders, but they are neither in reality. They are proud, but not to the point of insult at slights. They are sensitive to the needs of others. While they are inquisitive and curious, they are not pushy.

It is wrong to see halflings as mischievous children. They respect the dignity and property of others.

The Hin venerate their elders, but do not understand religions. They believe strongly in personal freedom. They do not understand when people impose their wills upon others. Halflings will fearlessly tell someone when they have crossed the line.

Children are called Hinling, and they owe service to their family or clan in return for protection. Adolescents are called Yallaren and they have the right to speak and act freely. Hin are halfling adults and have full rights.

Among less adventurous Hin a favorite pastime is to blend pipesmoke mixes. They enjoy smoking after meals. Meals generally consist of ale, cheese, hot buttered biscuits, jelly, and cinnamon paste.

Here are how the Fleetfoot Hin see other peoples:

• The Traladarans are a proud and noble people.
• The Thyatians are a strong and noble people.
• The situation of the Half-breeds is tragic.
• The Darine are a force to be reckoned with.
• The Callarii are powerful and noble.
• The Highforge gnomes are kindred spirits.
• The Stronghollow dwarves are too serious.
• One-Eye orcs are immensely dangerous, but are useful at times. This is particularly true since they have sided with Duke Stefan.
• The dragons of the Kingdom of Argosyll are an ancient evil to be watched carefully. There are suspicions that Duke Stephan is being controlled by the dragons.
• The bugbears of the Black Fang horde are evil brutes who can be manipulated.
• The ogres of the Duyar horde are evil and must be wiped out!
• The stone giants of the Earal clan are seemingly friendly, but very dangerous.
• The Frost Giants of the Grokilan clan are evil servants of the immortal Hel.
• The elves of the Vyalia clan are fun-loving and not to be taken seriously.
