A variety of
Halfling that seems to be more closely related to Dwarves, Stouts combine
many of the advantages of Dwarves and Halflings and make an excellent Player
Character race. However, they may not exist in all settings. Stouts tend to
act like a cross between Dwarves and Halflings might be
expected to act, basically prosaic
stay at home types, but also durable and stalwart on the defense
and often are skilled spelunkers. |
You may
need GM permission to play a Stout Halfling as they may not exist
within the setting. |
