The Lightfoot are the most numerous and well traveled of the three 
subraces of halflings, making them the most well known.  Nearly every 
human community of any size has its share of halfling residents. 
Lightfoot halflings may be the most common of the subraces, but their 
behavior is also the most varied. Lightfoots are considered to be 
semi-nomadic.  Most scholars believe this comes from when the 
lightfoot left Luiren after the Ghostwar massacre, they were unable to 
find a new homeland that suited them well, so they wondered.  Whatever 
the reason for this the lightfoot seem determined to see a great deal 
of Faerun and have many interesting experiences during their lifetime. 
  
Lightfoot halflings look much like humans, only smaller.  Usually 
their height is anywhere between three and four foot tall. As their 
name suggest, lightfoot halflings often take classes that work well 
for wanderers, such as rogue and bard.  Halflings often pick often 
pick up an impressive array of skills during their travels, and with 
their small size and low strength, they need the advantages of stealth 
and cleverness.  


Lightfoot halflings tend to be generalist when it comes to magic, 
using a broad array of spells and magic items to make their travels 
more pleasant. They are skillful clerics and sorcerers, but sometimes 
lack the discipline to become accomplished as wizards.  Because they 
are almost always fighting foes who are larger then they are, 
lightfoot halflings favor spells that help them move around the 
battlefield and negate the physical strength of their foes.  They are 
fascinated with magic that makes travel easier in any way.
