Description: This woman is moderately tanned and has just the faintest trace of an accent. She wears many layers of old clothing at all times. She has done her best to style her golden hair to look like a famous performer. Her gray eyes have a joyful gleam in them most of the time.

Personality: She does not believe in betrayal or weakness as things to be tolerated. She is however greedy and will demand payment and proof of collateral's value and will produce a merchant's scale to make sure she is not cheated out of a speck.

History: She was raised in a white middle class family as the only child. In her formative years she discovered how persuasive she was. She began using that to her advantage selling useless wares at inflated prices. She now has a substantial network of resources ranging from contacts to ships to peers.

Motivation: She seems to be bored by most things.

Personality: She will rave to anyone who will listen. She is a bit of a xeno-phobe, disliking non-Halflings.

History: The child of western immigrants she idolized her father. While she appears to be a normal Halfling, she's... not quite right. Perhaps she's slightly insane, or otherwise so mentally alien to the rest of the world that she plain doesn't fit in. She struck the Detective job and began her own company from there.

Description: She is an average looking southern female in her early mid-life. She does not wear sleeves and tends to eschew shirts when she can avoid it. She keeps her long auburn hair kept up in a rat tail. She was beautiful and young once, which still shows through her age, but it is a faded beauty.

Personality: Aggressive, abrasive, and angry, Paela embodies much of what other species detest in the Halflings. Animals are drawn to her, and she is able to talk to them.

History: Her history is one of pain. She was disowned by both parents and raised among the slaves her parents kept. She sought a place where she would be rewarded solely on the merits of her skills. This search led her directly into Masseuse work with an outfit from a few towns over.

Personality: Yebe hangs on like a leech to those who appreciate her. It was this clingy personality that held back her painting career. She is harsh and unforgiving.

History: Sold as a small child to a necromancer, Yebe was an assistant, and all too frequently test subject. She eventually earned her freedom when her former master disappeared. When money was particularly tight she was walking through alleys when she overheard a Fletcher hiring some criminals to sabotage a competitor.
