Gnomes (not to be confused with dwarves) are small and wise creatures with pointed ears and large, deeply thoughtful eyes. Unlike dwarves, gnomes very rarely grow beards, but they take great care of their hair and often come up with breathtaking hairstyles.

Gnomes are weaker than humans and vulnerable to energy attacks. On the other hand, gnomes easily resist mental influence and are skilled at working with armour, enhancing its properties. They learn faster than others and know the histories and legends of Dreamland to perfection, often remaining neutral in the eternal war between Good and Evil. Gnomes also master the art of reading scrolls.

Gnomes tinker with gear for fun, so the gear sage gives them advice for free.

• Bonus skills: enchant armor, identify, lore, scrolls
