=== The Peoples ===

<u>Men (Big Folk)</u>
[[File:ICRPG_Axe_and_Blades.png|right|200px]]
Some Men dwell in the Bree-land, though many more hail from the lands beyond. Men stand between five and six feet tall with a variety of hair and skin tones. Some claim descent from the Dunedain, the Rangers of the North.
*'''Adaptable:''' Men start with a free bonus edge, which may be any edge they qualify for.

<u>Hobbits (Little Folk)</u>

The inhabitants of the Shire, though many Hobbits live in Bree-land as well.

Most Hobbits stand a little over three feet tall, with curly brown hair on their heads and feet. They favor green and yellow clothing, and six meals a day when they can get them.
*'''Plucky:''' Hobbits start with a d6 in Spirit instead of a d4. This increases maximum Spirit to d12+1.
*'''Quick and Quiet:''' Hobbits excel at moving quietly, and start with a d6 in Stealth instead of d4.
*'''Small:''' Hobbits average three feet in height and weigh 40 to 50 pounds. Their Size is -1.

<u>Dwarves (Bearded Folk)</u>

Dwarves may hail from the Blue Mountains, Khazad-dûm, or even far distant Erebor or the Iron Hills. Though few make their homes near Bree, they are often seen on the road passing through on business of their own. Dwarf merchants are popular and respected, and their wares are of the highest quality.

Dwarves average four feet tall and are very broad. Their long beards (sometimes forked) are often brown or black, and sometimes yellow, red or even blue. They favor hooded cloaks.
*'''Make Light of Burdens:''' Dwarves start with a d6 in Strength instead of a d4. This increases maximum Strength to d12+1.
*'''Born Crafter:''' Dwarves start with a d4 in Repair.
*'''Outsider:''' Dwarves are reclusive and insular, and both Men and Hobbits are never quite comfortable around them. Dwarves subtract 2 from Persuasion rolls except with other Dwarves.

==== Notes on Wealth and Gear ====

*The Wealth Die is being used. Characters have a starting Wealth of d6 unless they take the Poverty hindrance (d4), or the Rich edge (d8) or Filthy Rich (d10)
*Standard medieval gear is available for purchase, although armor and large weapons are rare and may not be readily available. 
*Bronze and plate armor does not exist.
*Chain armor is uncommon and generally possessed by professional soldiers or Dwarves.
*Black powder weapons are uncommon but they do exist; a recent innovation of the Dwarves. The cost is doubled for non-Dwarf characters.
