An existing community, rather small by most standards, of Gnomes was discovered living beneath the mountain (as Dwarves do) of Rockhome (as the Gnomes called it). The Gnomes were initially believed to be an off shoot of Dwarves, but upon closer examination there was quite a few differences. Gnomes did not care much for forging weapons, armor or magnificent halls; they were more interested in wealth \u2013 but not for the sake of being rich, but rather to fund their \u201cexperiments\u201d which involved an assortment of contraptions. Gnomes have mastered the ability to use steam, to power everything within their environment. Unlike their \u201cDwarven Cousins\u201d \u2013 gnomes are capable of magic. Who, or how they learned to use magic, remains completely unknown. (Not even the Gnomes remember who first brought Magic to their people). There is said to be only about 1,000 known gnomes in the \u201cknown\u201d world thus far, making them the most uncommon race. Some gnomes are \u201ctouched\u201d by what is called \u201cTouch of Bargledar\u201d which compels gnomes to acquire diamonds and jewels to \u201crebuild the Great Star.\u201d Gnomes do not record much of anything; all their time \u201cwriting things down\u201d is dedicated to schematics. So there is no calendar (thus no gnomes know their age in years), there\u2019s no history of population, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
