No one truly knows the origins of the Hauflin race, wherever humans live in peace and have cultivated the land or tamed the wilds Hauflin can be found, they live alongside humanity and always have done so. Occasionally a Hauflin village will form but it is always deep in civilised lands. Hauflins are an affable bunch, who like nothing better than a simple life and a good meal.
Males stand around 4'6" and females stand around 4’ tall and they weigh around 60lbs. Their hair tends to range from blonde to brown to auburn. Eyes tend to be slightly oversized giving a childlike appearance and are typically blue, green or brown. Ears are tapered like an Ael. Males cannot grow beards. Apart from that there is very little apart from being very petite that makes them different to a human. Hauflins have lived a symbiotic relationship with humans for as long as anyone can remember they fulfil many roles such as bakers, cooks, shepherds, and gardeners, they are frequently out and about selling food and beverages to travellers and often act as couriers and messengers. Often viewed by many as inconsequential, Hauflin should never be underestimated and will stand alongside his human neighbour in defence of their homes and families.
Hauflin hit puberty are around 12 years of age and considered adult by 18, middle age is around 35 and death occurs around 60. There is a myth that Hauflin have hairy feet.. they can have but no more than any human
