The term ''halfling'' is the colloquial name of an offshoot species of [[Human|humanity]], with the scientific designation of ''Homo sapiens ex animalis''. Halflings first appeared in the Mazes approximately [[History of the Mazes|413 years ago]], roughly at the same time as [[magician|magicians]] did.
Halflings resemble humans at first glance, but possess several animalistic traits differentiating them from humans, appearing to be a cross between human and animal. Despite the use of the word "halfling", they are not exactly 50% human and 50% animal. They are completely sapient and civilized, and have integrated into settlements and society at large since their discovery. There exists 7 different halfling sub-species, each one possessing traits and elements from a different animal. All halflings are biologically compatible with each other, [[human|humans]], and by extension, with [[youkai]], and all have retained the [[human]]'s omnivore diet.
''Feline halflings'' possess, as the name suggests, feline features on an otherwise human-like body, and are genetically related to the [[lynx]]. Specifically, they possess feline ears and tail, slitted eyes, pointed fangs, and sharp, retractable claws instead of nails, on both hands and feet. They also possess a greater amount of body hair than a human, appearing as patches of fur, though none has ever been observed with a full coat covering the entire body.
