Walk Softly and Carry a Big Stick

From the Dawn of Time we have walked Elanthia. Our history is rich in Tradition, and Shrouded in Mystery. There are works entirely devoted to Olvi, and many others that mention us. There are works that can be found in any good library, and works that are scatterd and doomed to be lost forever. This is due, in part, to our history being mostly an oral one. The few histories that have been written down are mostly Stories for Children; designed to teach simple lessons of Courage, Racial Pride, and Self-Reliance.

Our race has endured War, Famine, Disease, Poverty and Richness. At any given time you can be sure there is an Olvi, somewhere, who is reading Olvi history, writing Olvi history, or making Olvi history.

There are two well known Tales belonging to Olvi, they are;

Arthe Dale Tale

The Halflings of Riverhaven --- Roots

Although Olvi are generally conservative and unconcerned in many matters, espcially those relating to politics and war, We have made our mark in history in many different ways.

Halflings were hired as scouts or spies during the Elven-Human Wars and we took payment from both sides since, in our own opinion, neither side deserved any form of respect. Read about it!

The Olvi were the only folk to stand beside the Gor'Tog when the issue regarding their sentience was raised, and we argued vehemently for their freedom to live as an intelligent race. Read about it!

Current Olvi history is filled with the exploits of the Tanglefoot Family,
The tallest Halfling known, was Tundun TangleFoot,
He was four foot five and could ride a horse!
