seraphimd2 & Stil996 you BOTH make good points. Rosy has many stereotypical quirks & habits that make her very much a standard halfling/hobbit. But she does have personality that makes her more unique as a character (& no Stil996 "covksucking" is not a personality lol). Her BF was essentially a failed Bilbo parady & the Halfling communities are (until proven otherwise) are essentially all Halfling stereotypes. Same with Elves, Giants, Dwarves, Goblins & Orcs.
Heck I'm an Englishman & while I have MANY things that make me an individual person I still have traits that make me very stereotypicaly English (I like fish's chips, I tell "wyaaa" when a drink is dropped in the pub & I moan constantly about the weather). Sterotypes are born from somewhere after all. You're both correct & you're both wrong all in one. Basing ROSY as a character in halfling stereotypes is essentially removing her character. But ignoring the halfling-ishnes about her is ignoring her species.
