Have you played a Gnome?

[omedon]

I have played two gnomes, one in 2e and one in 3e (my current character) and I must say that they probably take up two spots in my top three characters of all time. And they were by far the funnest to play.

Gnomes are Great!

Gnomes are by far the coolest race. I was so tired of them getting the short shrift, that I started a FR campaign focused around gnomes. It s a story about a gnomish warlord arising from the ashes of Cormyr to unite the various factions and subraces of gnomes to create a glorious gnomish empire.

Long live the Gnomes!

I once had a deep gnome PC who was a thief/illusionist. He fled from drow slavers, and made his way to the surface. He always grumbled about the noise the fighters made, and was a little outrageous. He was anything but a tinker gnome. He cared about his party, but thought they were strange and a little foolhardy. (Going after an aboleth.. it worked, just barely.) He would occassional throw in a practical joke to teach someone a lesson. He was more than a little volatile, possibly due to his earlier life. Unfortunately, he died due to a failed saving throw.

You forgot an option: No, but I plan to!

Still waiting to play that gnome necromancer...

Huzzah!!! Gnomes RULE!!!

I've played one Gnome in 3E... a Psion/Pyrokineticist. He... um, well, doesn't have a lot of friends. He sets lots of fires. Not too popular in towns, either...

I am playing one of these right now!


He rocks

You also left off the option for those who've played gnomes but haven't enjoyed it.

Not that I think it was all the gnomes fault. I was aiming for a radical change from former characters, and I learned I'm just not the paladin type.

Where is the "Yes, but it made me feel dirty afterwards" option?

I've played a gnome but I wouldn't make a habit out of it and I certainly don't think they rock. Even the Rock Gnomes.
