Yes, the failure rate might be high, but audacious is the only way to go if you want to succeed spectacularly.Ĭommon names: Bimbatonk, Bizzsprocket, Bombastick, Corgi, Gindee, Gist, Glinwack, Kathfinkle, Pishwash, Puddlegauge, Shortwock, Teeblonk, Thistlespanner, and Tocatitinus. Gnomes, when confronted with a problem, tend to come up with crazy solutions, often with only a marginal chance of success. Strange suggestions, perplexing plans, idiosyncratic ideas and insane inventions. Odd notions: Compared to humans, most Gnomes live outside “the box”, mentally speaking. Gnomes can grow quite old, many surviving their 150th birthday. They have human features, but tend to have a bigger nose, strange ears and wispy hair. Small and lithe: Gnomes stand around a meter tall, are light and gracefully built, and weigh between 15 and 30 kilos. Also, once it is rumoured that “season is up” somewhere, competition among males can get quite caustic.
On the other hand, Gnomish birth rates have dropped drastically. In daily life, this works well for both male and female Gnomes, because less time spent on romance means more time available for work. However, since leaving Faerie, female Gnomes seem to have switched to a three year menstrual cycle. Hard working entrepreneurs, fierce competitors and eager to employ any manner of subterfuge in order to succeed, many Gnomish families have done well for themselves amongst humans since their exile. Gnomes have since permeated the academic and engineering communities of human society, offering up sound technological advice, insightful ideas, cheap licensing of patents and downright dangerous inventions.
Not any sort of pollution, but a nasty smog combined with greasy, magical manifestations with a disturbingly long half-life.
The gnomes were permanently exiled for polluting a vast area of Faerie. Others still say she had separate issues weighing her down, like the rather expensive divorce she was going through. Some say the Faerie Queen overreacted when the she exiled the gnomes because of the damage they caused. The Gnome and the Invention by MegyeriMano
