			It's not uncommon for [[Halfling]]s to be given a pygmy-inspired reskin in [[Ethnic Fantasy]] settings, with both [[Maztica]] and [[Malatra]] featuring their own "pseudo-pygmies" based on offshoots of the Halfling race.

	Because pygmy is considered a dirty word these days, pygmies are pretty much never seen in /tg/ media. In the hoary days of the late 70s and early 80s, [[Warhammer Fantasy]] had a minor human faction native to [[Lustria]] called [[Pygmies (Warhammer Fantasy)\|Pygmies]], who are short, rotund, cannibalistic African caricatures described as being a result of experiments conducted by the [[Lizardmen#Slaan\|Slaan]] on humans who weren't lucky enough to be turned into [[Amazon]]s. [[Games Workshop]] considers them an old shame, and is adamant that they will '''never ever''' be re-introduced into Warhammer canon, even going so far as to have a [[Blood Bowl]] comic in which an Amazon team competes because the warrior-women ate the original pygmy team that was going to be there (and who'd been planning to eat them first). The final nail in the coffin came from author Josh Reynolds responded to fan questions about The End Times, where he stated that the Pygmies got wiped out along with the Amazons when chunks of the Chaos moon destroyed Lustria and the Southlands.

			[[Dungeons & Dragons]] had pygmies show up in [[Dungeon Magazine]] #56 in a module that was part of David Howery's "Dark Continent" setting, which was in his own words a fantasy version of Africa. The fluff write up is actually pretty decent even by today's standards, stating that they are a mostly Neutral or Neutral Good society of halfling-sized stone age hunter gatherers who have been restricted into small settlements in the deep jungle by competition with their taller neighbors. They have no metallurgy, but obtain metal tools through trade with others. These same pygmies surprisingly got reprinted in the ''Monstrous Compendium Annual Volume 4''.
