Ah!
So the dog in this strip represents the 4th edition design team, right? And their inability to give gnomes a racial identity?
Very insightful.
 

You are wrong, it's because of the Book of Erotic Fantasy. There they are portraied as bisexual gangbangers....images in my head...burned in forever.

Makes you see Gnome (N)PCs with completly different eyes :uhoh:

Actually, WoTC have said as much. Or rather they are having difficulty agreeing on a racial identity for the Gnome. :D
 


They could have tried something similar to Changeling, also having the gnomes come from Feywild, except where elves/eladrin/drow were the nobility, Gnomes were the commoners in Feywild. Of course that would create some distrust between the 2 races that weren't there, but it would be something to add.

I never thought I'd see some of those words written on EN World......

That Book of Erotic Fantasy is a travesty.

Gnomes are my favorite non-human PC race.

C.I.D.

Gnomes should be information brokers. It's the perfect role for them.

A whole race of information brokers? That's almost as nonsensical as the Star Wars "all Hutts are gangsters" thing. Makes you wonder what they eat if there are no farmers or hunters...
