"The Town Guard are those Halflings who have proven themselves to be the most trustworthy and are charged with keeping law and order in the largest settlements of Hobbleshire. This practice dates back to when a group of woodsmen, armed only with their log axes saved the town of Heatherton from a vicious Hobgoblin slaving party. Each is armed with the fearsome halberd echoing the axes of their founders and are more than capable of swiping the legs from any foe."
