Unfortunately, it has also had negative impact on their intellect and culture.Darkvision up to 60’ (as well as Elven low light vision).This ability originated during the centuries they were forced to spend in their underground refuge. The persistence of the cloud of volcanic ash shadowing their homeland has preserved this ability even after their return to the surface.Light Sensitive: -1 to all attack rolls, saves, and checks while operating in direct bright light.Fire Resistance of 25 + character level.Long exposure to a volcanic environment has necessitated this adaptation.Also, another alteration in this campaign is that magic has been dead in the world for over a millennium (little more than ancient folklore to the modern mind). It has only recently returned in the form of spell-like abilities and mutations.As such, Gnomes as a race cannot have spell-like abilities (though individuals among them might). They have taken on more of a tinkerer/craftsman specialization.Tinker Gnome:As Gnome in PHB except as follows:-2 Strength, +2 Int, +2 Wis.Gnomes are not strong, but they are crafty and extremely good at many professions.No bonus weapon familiarity, saving throws, DC, attacks vs. favored enemies, or dodge vs. favored enemies.No spell-like abilities.+4 to any one craft or alchemy. +2 to all other craft and/or alchemy skills in which they have at least 1 rank.4 extra skill points at first level, +1 each additional level.If y'all have any thoughts, I would greatly appreciate them.Thanks,Ryan</blockquote>
