[QUOTE="MechaPilot, post: 7182270, member: 82779"] I like that they can be wizards too. I like that restricting them is in the hands of the DM, and is a setting decision by the DM, instead of just a default assumption. In my Tenesia setting, gnomes are an offshoot of the dwarf race (specifically, Tenesia's dwarfs are either stone or flame dwarfs, because they're tied to the elements similar to how Tenesia's elves are tied to nature, and gnomes naturally occur among stone dwarfs). Tenesia's gnomes are tinkerers, but they don't typically make giant, insane, devices that risk blowing up their homes. An item of gear in that setting is the "gnomish lock:" it's basically a combination lock. Gnomes also make clocks, pocket watches, etc. For me, multiclassing is a fix for a problem inherent in class-based rpgs: that you might have a character idea that doesn't fit neatly into a single class. That said, I agree with you about 3e's version of multiclassing. It was a massive disappointment to me after being used to AD&D 2e's version of multiclassing. [/QUOTE]
