Strongheart halflings are far distant from their lightfoot halfling cousins who opted to settle near mountainous regions. Brought together as a race by dwarven traders, Strongheart Halflings are stout and healthy halflings that appreciate the way of the warrior and family life. | Strongheart halflings are far distant from their lightfoot [[halfling]] cousins who opted to settle near mountainous regions.

Strongheart halflings are known to be the warmest of races. They treat most with a smile and a good story, and perhaps some ale or cider. They tend to their families with great responsibility and vigilantly maintain their clan and its surrounding areas. Many confuse Strongheart halflings with young dwarves, for their love of battle is remarkable and many legends of Strongheart Giant Slayers have been assimilated into dwarven folklore. They tend not to wander the lands as much as their lightfoot cousins, thus many settled strongheart clans are known around Layonara. The Fiercerock Clan is thought of as the strongest and most important clan, having settled a long time ago in the township of Stone. | Strongheart halflings are known to be the warmest of races.

Stronghearts are very religious halflings, never missing an opportunity to celebrate and praise the couple that brought them here. They pray to Deliar every time they trade and truly worship him as The Protector. They love Prunilla for the gift of hearth and strong families and pray to her before every meal and during many family events. Many Strongheart clans have shrines to Vorax and Dorand to pay respect to their dwarven brothers. | Stronghearts are very religious halflings, never missing an opportunity to celebrate and praise the couple that brought them here.
