📋 About This Mod

The Halfling Race is here! Short and sneaky, the Halfling carries less than an average character but has a slight stamina bump. The Halfling also has the following starting stats:

Sneak 20 Pickpocket 10 Lockpick 10 Light Armor 5 One Handed 5

The Halfling also has the Khajit "Night Eye" ability. I tried to disable two-handed weapons (due to there small stature) so let me know if that works out

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Adds a playable Halfling race to Skyrim with reduced carry weight, a stamina bonus, and the Khajiit Night Eye ability. A compact race mod with 327 endorsements, last updated in 2016.

✨ Key Features

Adds a new playable Halfling race to Skyrim.
Halflings have reduced carry weight compared to average characters.
Halflings receive a slight stamina boost.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-tested with 327 endorsements and over 10k downloads.
  • Gives you a sneaky, short character option with a built-in stamina edge.
  • Night Eye from the start is handy for dungeon crawling without torches.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2016, so it might not play nice with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
  • Reduced carry weight means you'll be making more trips to town unless you mod that too.
  • Only adds one race—no custom racial powers or quests beyond the starting stats.
🎯 Is This For You?
For roleplayers who want a hobbit-like character with a sneaky, stamina-focused playstyle. Also for completionists who like collecting race mods. Skip if you want deep racial mechanics or modern polish—this is a simple, old-school race addon.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, you'll need to port this mod or use a compatibility patch—it was made for Oldrim.
  • Pair it with a carry weight mod if you hate the reduced capacity, or embrace the challenge.
  • Use the Night Eye ability to scout ahead in dark caves—it's a lifesaver early on.
