It would also be interesting to have gnomes that live in rustic burrows, but have little machine shops inside where they make clocks and such.I like the idea of juxtaposing the tinker-gnome aspect with the garden-gnome aspects to create a culture with an appreciation for both nature and technology. Gnolls:The live their everyday lives as nomadic hunters and scavengers traveling in covered wagons made from the bones of large beasts. The skull forms the underside of the wagon and the rib cage is used as framework to support a tarp stretched over them.Every year however, the Gnolls will make a pilgrimage to their holy cities. The windowless walls are built from rough hewn blocks of sandstone and the roofs are made by layers of leather stretched over a bone frame.The Gnoll buildings have no doors on the sides. Rather, the Gnolls use rope ladders to climb in through the ceilings. These ladders can be pulled inside to keep outsiders from entering.The insides of the walls are covered in relief sculptures. There is not a single spot that isn't decorated with some kind of meticulous detail.</blockquote>
