Gnome

From dodWiki

Overview

Gnomes are a quirky demi-human race. Though not the mightiest of races, they are well versed in their studies of knowledges, weight gain magics and religions. Additionally, due to their familiarity with such lore, they tend to be more resistant to magics.

Gnomes usually focus in the magical or clerical arts, though a few rogues have ventured into the arts of thieving (albeit often not very well.)

Gnomes are a short, stocky race, similar to their dwarven cousins. Most often prefer an evening at home with a magical tome, a loaf of pipeweed bread and a cup of ale over venturing out to battle.

Gnomes possess the inherent ability to see in the dark with infravision and gain a bonus in any saving throw versus wands, spells, or staves. Unfortunately, Gnomes also get a large penalty in the amount of experience they gain.
