While gnomes are certainly not above cosmetic enhancement and may wish to change their appearance just to see how outlandish they can looktheir natural hues truly range over a rainbow of coloration. The coloration of gnomes varies so wildly that many outsiders assume gnomes commonly use dyes and illusions to change their skin and hair tones. Though their diminutive stature reduces their ability to move quickly, gnomes often train to take advantage of their size, especially when fighting foes much larger than themselves. Physical Description : Gnomes are one of the smallest of the common races, generally standing just over 3 feet in height.ĭespite their small frames, however, gnomes are extremely resilient, and not as weak as many of their foes assume.
Indeed, gnomes often confound their allies by treating everyone who is not a gnome as part of a single, vast non-gnome collective race. It seems stranger to a gnome that humans and elves share so many similarities than that the gnomes do not. Gnomes, in turn, are often amazed how alike other common, civilized races are. While such apparently fickle and impulsive acts are not universal among gnomes, they are common enough for the race as a whole to have earned a reputation for being impetuous and at least a little mad.Ĭombined with their diminutive sizes, vibrant coloration, and lack of concern for the opinions of others, these attitudes have caused gnomes to be widely regarded by the other races as alien and strange. Gnomes can have the same concerns and motivations as members of other races, but just as often they are driven by passions and desires that non-gnomes see as eccentric at best, and nonsensical at worst. Though gnomes are no longer truly fey, their fey heritage can be seen in their innate magic powers, their oft-capricious natures, and their outlooks on life and the world.
Unknown forces drove the ancient gnomes from that realm long ago, forcing them to seek refuge in this world despite this, the gnomes have never completely abandoned their fey roots or adapted to mortal culture.
