So yeah...finally decided to post it here :>
I know that there are many grammar/stylistic mistakes and I am working on them, one mistake at a time.

GIEF OPINIONS

(P.S. as we all know, halfling means half-human...not just that happy shiny tiny people thingy)

nope...halfling literally means half-human which is overused name for hobbits...

fantasy wikia said:
The term “halfling” is derived from the fact that a halfling is around half of the size of a human, but otherwise very similar in appearance.

wikipedia.com said:
Some fantasy stories use halfling to describe a person born of a human parent and a parent of another race, often a human female and an elf. Terry Brooks describes characters such as Shea Ohmsford from his Shannara series as a halfling of elf-human parentage. This kind of character is elsewhere called a half-elf and is distinct from the common fantasy race known as halflings. In Jack Vance's Lyonesse series of novels, "halfling" is a generic term for beings such as fairies, trolls and ogres, who are composed of both magical and earthly substances.
