Born in War art

By Bayushi Kec, in Legend of the Five Rings: The Card Game

So here's a Born in War card and I have a question about its art.

I dont want to offend anyone but what is on this picture? Is this a short person, a dwarf or someone with physical disabilities (possibly someone not able to go to war and left in the village) or what? Its been bugging me since i first saw it ?

I thought it was meant to be a child, enthusiastically waving at their older clan relatives riding to battle. "Born In" thereby implying "Raised With" War.

I agree it is a bit hard to tell for sure.
