Favored by the Fey, this race of short humanoids may have all manor of magical advantage.
They may pay homage to the gods of any race, but their religions seem more focused on appeasing their Fey, who are know to complicate their lives.

Those who do venture out into the bigger world are peculiarly secure in their own skins and make good adventuring companions known for their prudence and adventuring spirits in equal measure. [Need some lore, we can make it together] I'm inclined to give the gnomes the Old Gaellic gods and this would give the Gnomes some common grounds with the people of Grellan's Grove
