[quote=@Anarion]Stveje: What sort of place are your people tied to? Traditionally, the small folk might have been viewed as connected to druidism, perhaps worshipping a nature goddess. What kind of sacred space do your people protect? How closely connected are they to nature? To the traditional stories of the Fae and changelings?[/quote] The land they inhabit is mostly rocky fields and craggy hills with some scraggly forests. The hobbits are closely connected to the earth and rocks of their land, and to the flocks of hardy goats they keep for food, clothes, and transport. These goats have large and unusually twisted horns, which are an important symbolism in their culture. Wandering their land, you'll come across the spiral or the horned ram pattern everywhere (the number of horns varies), painted on stones and trees, arranged as stone formations in fields and on hills, and in their art and craft. The skulls and horns themselves are hung on walls, above doors, on sign posts, or as center pieces on tables. And they are used for making drinking horns, instruments, jewelry, and other items. They practice a form of druidism and worship a goat-horned nature goddess, yes (I should name her ... any suggestions?). If this being exists, she seems content to watch over them from afar. Maybe she was once closer and has since withdrawn, or perhaps she was always content to remain distant. Either way, the hobbits have no shortage of stories about her, and they don't all agree, of course. The hobbits live in small homes with extensive underground cellars and tunnels that form a maze-like network, linking houses together. No hobbit knows all of these passages. It's not unusual to discover that your house has a secret passage to someone else's house that you knew nothing about. There is only one larger structure in their land: a ruined castle and fortress. It has a story, but that story is shrouded in the mists of time and the fanciful legends that have been invented around it since. A few among the hobbits may know pieces of the real story, but it's unlikely that any single hobbit possesses all the pieces. Its crumbling towers, halls and dungeons are sacred and said to be where their goddess resides, haunting the nooks and crannies and countless hidden places of its walls. Wanderers too get the sense that it is haunted. It's the only place where the hobbits are mindful of going, always doing so with a level of respect that is uncommon elsewhere. [quote=@Anarion]Do they hide their powers when interacting with other folk or make themselves seem more like spirits than physical beings with all their size changing and tricks?[/quote] It depends. When people interact with them directly, they hide their powers and may seem like regular people, just smaller. But when people only see them from afar, and don't directly interact with them, they might adopt a more mysterious and ephemeral impression. You might hear the occasional story about them, or rather stories that were likely inspired by sightings or encounters with them, but they don't have much contact or connection even with other Fae. I'll be working on the character sheet and the last polish once I get the 2e book, but the next couple of days are a bit distracted, so it might not be ready until Thursday/Friday.
