LEGEND
🟥 | Intense animosity and hatred, mortal enemies, have a history of violent conflicts and ongoing grudges. |
🟧 | Significant tension or distrust; no open warfare but history of conflict. Strained relationship and cooperation is rare or difficult. |
🟨 | Neutral or cautious relationship, some mutual respect but also wariness. Diplomacy and trade are possible but often come with conditions. |
🟩 | Friendly and cooperative relations, may have a history of peaceful interactions, mutual respect, or collaboration on endeavors. |
HUMANOIDS
🟩 Halflings and tallfolk generally get along, with the latter more open than other races to changing patronizing behavior when it's pointed out. However, some deceitful humans pretend to be friendly while exploiting halflings' small stature for dangerous tasks. | |
🟨 Admired for their beauty and magical prowess but often seen as aloof and patronizing. Educated tallfolk respect their achievements and may seek their knowledge, but resent their condescension. Less educated tallfolk often find them intimidating and unapproachable. | |
🟩 Halflings respect the dwarves' sincere and honest natures, often finding common ground in their shared love for community and celebration, though they often view the dwarves as a bit too serious. | |
🟥 Largely living in small rural communities, halflings are especially vulnerable to dark elven raiders. They fear the dark elves, viewing them as dangerous and untrustworthy. | |
🟩 Though the non-magically-inclined halflings don't often have a lot of common ground with the scholarly, inventive gnomes, both races are generally good-natured and enjoy each other's company, often finding mutual respect despite their differences. |
MONSTROUS
🟨 Halflings are curious about oni but also wary of their connection to the Void. Many halfling socieities are supersitious, leading to unfounded and negative rumors about the oni. | |
Kobolds, Goblins, Tengu, Wildlings, Orcs, Changelings | 🟧 Halflings are often more curious and open-minded toward monstrous races than other humanoids, but their superstitious nature can make them fearful. Their wariness stems more from fear and the unknown than any sense of moral superiority. |
