Gnomes are small humanoids, that look like miniature Dwarves. They are from 50 to 60 centimeters tall. Gnomes are generally very wise and intelligent creatures, and very timid. To gain the trust of a Gnome is difficult but once this is achieved they become very good friends. Gnomes prefer to wear green or brown clothing and feel most at home in a forest. Most Gnomish villages will be built either inside or near a forest.
Bar Wood Elves very few people have actually visited or seen a Gnome village. There are rumors that the Gnomes build their homes inside the trunk and roots of trees. A Gnome knows which fruit, berries, and roots can be eaten and where to find them. For this reason, Gnomes make excellent healers and potion makers.
The potion-making ability of Gnomes is famous and has allowed a few to become assassins, naturally, specialising in poisons. Underestimated by their size, Gnome assassins are lethal. In general, though, Gnomes tend to keep themselves to themselves, only venturing into urban areas to trade their wares. All Gnomes have an Infravision of 6 meters in total darkness.
