In this episode of Roll for Lore, we journey into the warm, cheerful, and quietly courageous world of the halflings. Inspired by real-world folklore of household spirits and, of course, Tolkien’s hobbits, halflings in Dungeons & Dragons have become symbols of optimism, luck, and simple heroism in a dangerous world. We trace their evolution across editions—from their rustic beginnings to their modern roles as nimble adventurers and unlikely heroes—and explore their cultures, from the home-loving Lightfoot halflings to the wandering Stouts and ghostwise clans. Along the way, we meet their gods, like Yondalla the Protector, and uncover how halflings bring heart and humor to the grandest of adventures. Whether you’re a player drawn to charm over power or just love stories of small folk with big courage, this episode celebrates the halflings who prove that bravery doesn’t come from size—it comes from spirit.
