Gnome
Gnomes are a species of humanoids on Subetia, primarily residing on Orcli, where they are found in two main ethnicities: Glass Gnomes and Grass Gnomes. These ethnicities have corresponding locations of gnome settlements, but the ethnicities can also differ by personality. For example, a gnome with a more introverted personality yet born into a Glass Gnome area and family may later in life move to a Grass Gnome location and thrive more in that area, with that ethnicity. Gnomes may freely do this while maintaining a sense of family structure and visiting often.
Some gnomes are homebodies, but most are apt for adventures due to their thirst for knowledge. Gnomes are known for their ingenuity, inventions, gadgets, gizmos, contraptions, and discoveries in magical and medicinal substances. Prominent gnomes are wizards, scientists, and naturists. Few serve in the military, but some gnomes can be found across Orcli.
Gnomes almost universally have a keen sense of humor, which is reflected in their nomenclature, which employs rhymes, alliteration, jokes, and humor, giving gnome babies interesting and funny names. It is an honor to receive a reaction to a name, either positive or negative out of shock or disgust.
Gnomes are hardy and small in stature. As a result, some are employed to live in lighthouses as seen in Cape Candle, and many can live in close quarters as seen in Nickwick. The gnomish capital is Mossellia, which is predominantly Grass Gnome. Glass Gnomes are primarily found in Trepsilton but many now reside in Nickwick and even as far as Hodn Hwell.
