Ghostwise Halflings

Ghostwise are the most mysterious of the halfling races and few have ever visited their secluded homes. After the savagery they fell into during the Hin Ghostwars, the few remaining Ghostwise halflings imposed an exile upon themselves and left Luiren, settling into Chondalwood. They now avoid contact with other races, wandering the woods quietly.

Ghostwise society consists of several clans, each of which inhabits their own slice of the Chondalwood. Family and clan are extremely important to Ghostwise halflings, and the clan follows their leader where ever he or she goes. Each clan has their own patron deity picked from the halfling pantheon, though Sheela Peryroyl and Urogalan are perhaps the most important powers to the Ghostwise.

Their nomadic lifestyle means that most Ghostwise are barbarians, rogues or rangers. Some clans befriend giant owls and mount them to defend their territory from the air. These champions are known as nightgliders. There are very few arcane casters among the Ghostwise, and wizards are virtually non-existant: the Ghostwise are generally illiterate. Clerics and druids, on the other hand, are rather common.
