Munchkin

Jenny Everywhere mistook the diminutive humanoids she met in Hideea for Munchkins until they angrily declared themselves to be Dwarves, taking offence at the comparison to Munchkins. (COMIC: Beauty as a Beast)

Behind the scenes

Munchkins are small humanoids from L. Frank Baum's Oz series, and are in the public domain; they are the inhabitants of the eastern quarter of Oz, the other countries being the Gillikins, the Winkies, and the Quadlings. It is unclear from COMIC: Beauty as a Beast if Munchkins exist natively to Hideea or if the Dwarves simply know the term as an insult for short people such as themselves.
