Gnome

Additional Information

Average Intelligence

Gnomes are an intelligent and innately curious race. While some gnomes might lack the drive and ambition of other races, particularly humans, their creativity gave them a strong ability for ingenuity. Most gnomes are content to live simpler lives, acquiring knowledge merely as a hobby but others seek out and explore lost ruins, delved deep into the heart of the world, and conducted dangerous research in their unquenchable thirst for knowledge, leading more than a few to an untimely demise.

Average Physique

While halflings were commonly said to resemble short humans, gnomes were more comparable with elves, with whom they shared pointed ears and high cheekbones, or even dwarves, due to their tendency to grow beards and live underground. Many gnomes had a more feral appearance than either, however, with hair that often sprouted from their heads in odd directions.
