| I want one. Is there a reason why halflings can't be sorcs? | |

| I guess it's the hobbit image. They don't seem the types to go into such a mentally demanding field. (Not that they're dumb, but that they're a little too lazy.) Yes, they can be necromancers, but I tend to include necromancy as a short-cut: dealing with unclean spirits for power, rather than gathering it entirely through one's own effort. YMMV, of course. | |

| Hurm. I would like to hear a genuine reason this was not allowed, or why people think it should not be. Forsooth's answer while possibly legitimate, seems to perpetuate a closed-minded view. Halflings do differ from hobbits, so why not here, too? I vote yes. | |

| I had never really associated halflings with hobbits. The help file isn't very revealing about halfling personality. It says their obsessive and selfish. Doesn't really sound like a hobbit to me. Sounds like a really short human. | |

| Quote: Doesn't really sound like a hobbit to me. Sounds like a really short human. That's what we should be avoiding. There's no point in having different races unless the races are truly different. That sentiment should go beyond attributes to culture. | |

| Learn the history of magic in SK. Sorcerors are watered down necromancers. Halflings have always been blessed by necromancy. Why would any halfling want to water down their coolness. | |

| Make a sprite sorc and polymorph to a halfling as needed. | |

| I voted yes, more race/class combos are always welcome. And I admire the logic that allows griffons to be sorcerors but not halflings.   | |
