‎　The diminutive Hinfolk survive in a world full of larger creatures by avoiding notice or, barring that, avoiding offense. They are widely accepted around the world and are often jokingly called every race’s “best friends”. Masters of trade and commerce, the Hinfolk have seen every corner of the continent and have set up communities in any place deemed worthy of trade — even going as far as developing a shared language for all people to aid in trade deals. They have a knack for finding the most straightforward solution to a problem, and have little patience for dithering.

　‎　Hinfolk are an affable and cheerful people. They cherish the bonds of family and friendship as well as the comforts of hearth and home, harboring few dreams of gold or glory. Even adventurers among them usually venture into the world for reasons of community, friendship, wanderlust, or curiosity. They love discovering new things, even simple things, such as an exotic food or an unfamiliar style of clothing. They are easily moved to pity and hate to see any living thing suffer. They are generous, happily sharing what they have even in lean times.
