Description
Gnomes, intelligent, inventive, inquisitive and absent minded. I love these little geniuses. In ancient fantasy they were depicted as miners and only somewhat tinkerers along with goblins, in more recent time, since there were literally multiple races that all seemed exactly the same (Kobold, Coblynau, Goblin, Gnome, Dwarf, etc…) who all mind underground, did a bit of tinkering, mostly had beards, were small and were associated with earth, these races, who back then could be interchanged with only minor differences, eventually took on differing traits. Gnomes evolved into the tinkerers, to a degree, along with goblins.

I think minors all over the world herd strange noises when they minded from the depths of their mines, this frightened them and they came up with all sorts of mining creatures, they eventually emulated each other and eventually within the social consciousness of many cultures they separated themselves out into different kinds of creatures.

Gnomes now don’t live under ground so much as they used to, they are still tied to the earth and seem to be distant relatives to the dwarves. They like sunlight a lot more though. I chose to keep them with white hair. No matter what age they are, all gnomes have white hair. These two in the picture are a young pair of gnomes, equivalent to what we would consider mid-twenties in human years, but they still have white hair. But that’s ok, everything else reflects their proper age. These two have normal young vibrant skin and muscles and bones, they’re not really old people. But they will be some day.
