At first glance, Erista doesn't really look like an adventurer.  Subsequent glances don't do much to rectify this.  Giving up on glancing and looking at her carefully only serves to confirm it.  Perhaps it's the sun-blonde hair, or maybe it's the fresh flowers that are usually woven into it.  Possibly it's the bare feet, or the simple white dress she wears.  The bright blue eyes and rosy cheeks probably don't help.  It might even be that, at barely over 2 and a half feet, even other Halflings consider her to be on the small side.  But whether she's here for a reason, or just got lost... she's here at Rappan Athuk, and forty-eight people (and counting!) asking where her parents are hasn't turned her away.
