Gnomes are a quirky demi-human race. Though not the mightiest of
races, they are well versed in their studies of knowledges, magics
and religions. Additionally, due to their familiarity with such
lore, they tend to be more resistant to magics. They can, though,
suffer tremendously from physical attacks.
Gnomes usually focus in the magical or priestly arts, though a few
rogues have ventured into the arts of thieving (albeit often not
very well.)
Gnomes are a short, stocky race, similar to their dwarven cousins.
Most often prefer an evening at home with a magical tome, a loaf of
pipeweed bread and a cup of ale over venturing out to battle.
