The Wanderwine Family [Recruiting!]

The Wanderwine Family

 

The Wanderwines are the copper-headed travelers of the Halfling race. Ever wondering what lies over the crest of the next hill or what sits in the next locked safe, this family never seems to stay in one place for long. Founded in Athera by Perdric Wanderwine, a notorious spinner of yarns and purloiner of unprotected goods, the family moved on to great things, such as aiding in the Defeat of the Boggle Wolf, raiding the castle of The Sky Giant and even a (very) short stint as mayor!

 

 

 

Culture and Tradition:

 

Wanderwines have an affinity for stealing…or rather, borrowing. While many Hobbits won’t shy away from thievery every once and awhile, these mischievous folk bring it to an entirely new level. To them, every heist is a work of art, to be lovingly planned and thought out from every angle. However, woe betide one who steals from a Wanderwine, lest they wake up to an empty house.

 

 

 

While many of the Wee Folk retain a strong sense of community, the Wanderwines hold family ties above all else. Due to the unscrupulous nature of many of its members, the family will look after their own and form tight-knit sects wherever one may find them. Friends of the clan may find themselves ‘adopted’’ by the family, being dubbed cousin, uncle or grandfather by members.

 

 

 

Appearance:

 

The Wanderwines boast an imposing height of roughly two-and-a-half feet, quite useful when wiggling through an open window, or escaping a hungry Orc. Their feet may appear large by any other standard, but among Hobbits, they are a bit on the small side.

 

They have a light to mid tan complexion, veering towards the whiter spectrum. Atop their heads and feet sit a wooly tangle of ginger hair, ranging from dark red to coppery orange. It isn’t unheard of for members of the family to bear small amounts of facial hair, as lovingly groomed moustaches and goatees are common among the male members.

 

 

 

Religion:

 

The Wanderwine Family doesn’t have any central form of religion, but there is an ever-expanding list of superstition that many members of the family hold dear. Different sects may have their own unique set of taboos, but there are three rules that every proper Wanderwine abides by:

 

1. Listen to your elders, they’re older and smarter than you are!

2. Never ever EVER steal from another Halfling.

3. If something is stolen, leave something in return.

 

Remember, each Wanderwine is unique in their own beliefs! They hold no official deity, but there is a strong undercurrent of Knoxism running through many members of the family.

 

 

 

History:

 

Being a relatively new family, the Wanderwines don’t have much in the way of an official history. Instead, each member records their own interpretation of their life which is held as gospel. Once finished, these biographies are kept in a safe, secret location known by the oldest and wisest of the family, to be retrieved only when they are needed.

 

Personal Sagas will be recorded below for any who are interested!
