	The diminutive race of gnomes is thought to be an offshoot of the [[Dwarf\|dwarven]] race that traces its roots back to a few centuries after the [[The_Great_War\|Great War]]. A dwarven hero by the name of [[Fegall]], who fought many battles in the Great War and was reputed to be an innovative crafter, gained the admiration of thousands of galdokin followers who sought to emulate him and learn from him. Over time, this adulation caused Fegall to ascend to godhood, and a few centuries after that, the isolation of Fegall's followers caused them to exhibit differences from their now distant galdokin cousins. The races became so different in appearance, outlook, and attitudes towards craftsmanship, in fact, that they came to be called gnomes.

	Many gnomes will take part in the search for components needed for their crafts that are not found within Deglos. In some of the more obscure guilds, strange components can be acquired. One widely-held account even tells of gnomes from a strange guild seeking underpants. On journeys like these, the gnome will encounter many strange and unfamiliar settings that will lead to many side-tracks, which the gnome will happily partake of without hesitation or realization of their lack of focus.

	Though they cannot completely understand the serious and almost grumpy attitudes of their dwarven brethren, the gnomes regard them as distant cousins and count them as their greatest allies and friends. This is more true of the dubgaldokin than any other type. Aside from that, gnomes will get along with any race or creature that allows them their space to work and pursue their journey to become the ultimate crafter. They do not take kindly to large-scale interference to their work brought about by disturbances from underground minions, or invasions from the outside.

	On the surface, gnomes are generally a mystery because they are not seen with any regularity. [[Human~~, Civilized~~\|Humans]] enjoy making up funny stories about them, which may or may not have basis in truth. These stories usually stem from the gnomish tendancy to request odd parts and objects for components used in their research. Those who encounter gnomes on the surface will often corroborate the human stories, more for fun than anything else. They seem to be a favorite outlet for jokes and humor among many surface races. [[Elf~~, Avlissian~~\|Elves]] are more stoic when it comes to gnomes, seeing them as an equal inhabitant of the continent on which they live, and taking more than a little pleasure at the fact that the gnomes do not seem to favor living in their forests at all.

	Gnomes speak [[Ganoom\|their own language]], which is directly related to [[Dwergan\|dwarven]]. The two tongues are close enough to get a basic understanding of what is being said when one speaks dwarven and the other speaks gnomish. The common tongue is also well-known in gnomish society, especially among gnomes who trade with surface dwellers or those that live among them.
