Salientia halflings (''Homo sapiens ex salientia'') are famous for two things: their skin colors and their strength. The skin of a salientia halfling is reminiscent to that of their animal counterparts, and can take on various colorful patterns, overriding the "default" human skin colors; ranging from green, to red, to yellow, to brown, to gray, sometimes with black spots arranged in various, blob-like patterns. Their strength is attributed to their enhanced muscular structure; they are one of the few halfling species to be naturally stronger than humans on average. Like their parent species, they are quite agile, capable of higher jumps and leaps than normal humans, which they put to good use when needing to take cover. Interestingly, though salientia halflings inherited long and sticky tongues from their animal counterparts, they are omnivorous and exhibit no particular preferences for any type of food. However, their skin has largely no protective features, and is in general softer and more susceptible to damage than that of humans. Excluding their colorful skin, salientia Salientia halflings are generally behaviorally indistinguishable from humans. The stereotypes associated to this species are largely related to strong body odor and poor hygiene, with occasional references to their tongues and their omnivorous diet being sometimes exaggerated into tall tales and stories of being able to eat anything, including insects or non-food objects.
