Intelligent and wise, gnomes are typically drawn to the life of a
Priest or a Mage. Their deft fingers and high agility make them
skilled and natural Scouts.
Gnomes are smallest of the great races. A typical Gnome is
approximately 3.5 feet tall and is very light of weight. They are
thin and have slight muscularity. They have very pronounced facial
features, almost caricatured. Their hair styles are often
flamboyant and pointy. Gnomes are a very social race that adapt
well to just about any situation.
Gnomes are a tiny, slightly built race created by Brell. What they
lack in size they make up for in tenacity and ingenuity. Gnomes are
known for their inquisitive nature, constantly tinkering with
things both mystical and technological. This poking around has
gotten them into trouble in the past, but their craftiness and
intellect has allowed them to survive and prosper despite whatever
mischief they might unleash. Gnomish architecture is mechanistic in
nature, with lots of gears and motors turning all manner of odds
creations. Gnomes are known for constructing "clockwork" devices,
essentially mechanical versions of all manner of creatures, from
rats to dragons. They even make clockwork gnomes to aid them in the
completion of manual labor.
Like their cousins the Dwarves, Gnomes are adept miners with a love
for precious gems and the metals of Norrath. As they are lacking
in physical strength, many Gnomes concentrate on intellectual
pursuits through the study of magic. Gnomes believe every question
can be answered through their system of Mechanimagica, a belief
that combines science and magic. The Gnomes; analytical minds are
always working, constantly devising new formulas, strategies, and
sometimes mischief.
Though largely materialistic by nature, Gnomes who choose a
religious life pursue it with extreme fervor, overcoming their
physical limitations to become devoted crusaders and priests.
Gnomes who walk the path of light usually worship either Brell or
Bristlebane. An evil sect primarily composed of necromancers and
shadowknights praises Bertoxxulous the Plaguebringer.
