 ==Gnome Names==
 Gnomes love names, and most have half a dozen or so. A gnome's mother, father, clan elder, aunts, and uncles each give the gnome a name, and various nicknames fromjust about everyone else might or might not stick over time. Gnome names are typically variants on the names of ancestors or distant relatives, though some are purely newinventions. When dealing with humans and others who are “stuffy” about names, a gnome learns to use no more than three names: a personal name, a clan name, and a nickname, choosing the one in each category that’s the most fun to say.

 Curious and impulsive, gnomes might take up adventuring as a way to see the world or for the love ofexploring. As lovers ofgems and other fine items, some gnomes take to adventuring as a quick, if dangerous, path to wealth. Regardless ofwhat spurs themto adventure, gnomes who adopt this way of life eke as much enjoyment out ofit as they do out of any other activity they undertake, sometimes to the great annoyance oftheir adventuring companions.

-== About Race ==
+'''''Ability Score Increase.''''' Your Intelligence score increases by 2.
-Gnomes can have the same concerns and motivations as members of other races, but just as often they are driven by passions and desires that non-gnomes see as eccentric at best, and nonsensical at worst. A gnome may risk his life to taste the food at a giant's table, to reach the bottom of a pit just because it would be the lowest place he's ever been—and to the gnome those goals are as worthy as researching a new spell, gaining vast wealth, or putting down a powerful evil force
+'''''Age.''''' Gnomes mature at the same rate humans do, and most are expected to settle down into an adult life by around age 40. They can live 350 to almost 500 years.
-==== Physical Description ====
+'''''Alignment.''''' Gnomes are most often good. Those who tend toward laware sages, engineers, researchers, scholars, investigators, or inventors. Those who tend toward chaos are minstrels, tricksters, wanderers, or fanciful jewelers. Gnomes are good-hearted, and even the tricksters among themare more playful than vicious.
-Gnomes are one of the smallest of the common races, generally standing just over 3 feet in height. Despite their small frames, however, gnomes are extremely resilient, and not as weak as many of their foes assume. The coloration of gnomes varies so wildly that many outsiders assume gnomes commonly use dyes and illusions to change their skin and hair tones. Their natural hues truly range over a rainbow of coloration. Their hair tends toward vibrant colors such as the fiery orange of autumn leaves, the verdant green of forests at springtime, or the deep reds and purples of wildflowers in bloom. Similarly, their flesh tones range from earthy browns to floral pinks, and gnomes with black, pastel blue, or even green skin are not unknown.
+'''''Size.''''' Gnomes are between 3 and 4 feet tall and average about 40 pounds. Your size is Small.
-==== History ====
+'''''Speed.''''' Your base walking speed is 25 feet.
-The gnomes are attracted to the naturally occurring anomaly that is the massive maze. More and more gnomes gathered at the maze attracted to its mystery and the city of Wudinna forms. Gnomes begin tinkering with and exploring the maze, which leads many travelers to ask the gnomes for guidance through the maze. The gnomes found engineering and advance through capability to change and construct new gadgets within the maze. A gnome city is established and developed at Gryphon Peak. This tribe seeks out and obtains the philosopher’s stone artifact and holds it in secret.
+'''''Darkvision.''''' Accustomed to life underground, you have superior vision in dark and dimconditions. You can see in dimlight within 60 feet ofyou as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dimlight. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades ofgray.
-==== Society ====
+'''''Gnome Cunning.''''' You have advantage on all Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma saving throws against magic.
-Unlike most races, gnomes do not generally organize themselves within classic societal structures. Gnome cities are unusual and gnome kingdoms almost unknown. Further, gnomes have no particular tendency to gather in specific neighborhoods even when a large number of them live among other races. While specific laws meant to contain the potential impact of gnomes on a society may require a “gnome quarter,” and societal pressure sometimes causes all non-gnomes to move away from areas with high gnome populations, left to their own devices, gnomes tend to spread evenly throughout communities that allow them.
+'''''Languages.''''' You can speak, read, and write Common and Gnomish. The Gnomish language, which uses the Dwarvish script, is renowned for its technical treatises and its catalogs ofknowledge about the natural world.
-==== Relations ====
+'''''Subrace.''''' Two subraces of gnomes are found among the worlds ofD&D: forest gnomes and rock gnomes. Choose one ofthese subraces.
-==== Alignment and Faith ====
+===Forest Gnome===
-Description
+As a forest gnome, you have a natural knack for illusion and inherent quickness and stealth. In the worlds of D&D, forest gnomes are rare and secretive. They gather in hidden communities in sylvan forests, using illusions and trickery to conceal themselves fromthreats or to mask their escape should they be detected. Forest gnomes tend to be friendly with other good-spirited woodland folk, and they regard elves and good fey as their most important allies. These gnomes also befriend small forest animals and rely on them for information about threats that might prowl their lands.

-==== Defense Traits ====
+'''''Natural Illusionist.''''' You knowthe minor illusion cantrip. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for it.
-==== Feat and Skill Traits ====

The device ceases to function after 24 hours (unless you spend 1 hour repairing it to keep the device functioning), or when you use your action to dismantle it; at that time, you can reclaimthe materials used to create it. You can have up to three such devices active at a time.
