Rock Gnome
(Base Race- GNOME, Sub Race- left empty or Rock Gnome) The human scholars of Candlekeep refer to the gnomes as the Forgotten Folk, for their willful evasion of the great wars and tragedies that color the history of Faerun’s other races. While the gnomes have been slaves of powerful nations such as Netheril and Calminshan in the past, they have never been conquerors. For the most part, they have lived in out-of-the-way forests and hills, untroubled by the conflicts that occupy human, elven and dwarven attention.

Rock Gnomes are the most common type of gnomes in Faerun, and are usually just called gnomes since they are the only

sort that surface dwellers ever see. They are inquisitive, irrepressible and at times insincere. Equipped by nature with keen curiosity and a knack for mechanical workings, gnomes excel at intricate crafts such as gemcutting, toymaking and clockwork engineering.
