[QUOTE="Mecheon, post: 9309153, member: 6801776"] Y'know, as gnome defender number one, let me just. Fish this back out... Why, though? Gnomes and dwarves aren't anything alike outside of being small. What gain is there from this? Rock gnomes are still gnomes. They're whimsical. They use magic regularly. Their dwellings and smaller and quaint, but also they accidentally manage to find a way to artificially create souls and decide to give the resultant living constructs full autonomy which, y'know. Isn't a dwarf thing. Dwarves are, very stereotypically, not whimsical and tend to detest whimsy to the point the D&D comic had a joke about a dwarf bard violating public music ordinance and that's just "Yeah, that checks". You'd just manage to annoy both parties with this, because the stereotypes of the two aren't handled by the other. Gnomes are gnomes. They're not dwarves. They're not halflings. They're also not gnelfs or gnoblins [/QUOTE]
