Icewind Dale II | Character | Races | Halfling
Halfling (Lightfoot)
Halflings stand about three feet tall, with florid skin and dark hair and eyes. Unlike the more segregated strongheart halflings, the lightfoots of the Forgotten Realms are a common sight in human, elven and dwarven lands. Lightfoot halflings are known for their incredible luck and their love of travel. They tend to be more gregarious than even their strongheart kin.

Ghostwise Halfling
Ghostwise halflings are the feral, reclusive cousins of lightfoot and strongheart halflings. They are found most often in the southern forests of the Realms living in small communities. Ghostwise halflings are rarely seen in large cities, but occasionally set out to explore the world for reasons known only to them. Visitors to ghostwise settlements often report that the halflings have kinship so tight with their fellows that they can communicate without speaking.
