Gnome

Gnomes are a strange, little folk related to the dwarves. At least, that's what everyone thinks. Gnomes are based in germany, where they are legendary folk. There are two types: forest gnomes and rock gnomes. The first is pretty much interested in the forests, and the second are philosophers and engineers. Gnomes are hardly seen in England, and when one is seen, it's something like a celebrity amongst the philosophers and scholars in Norman England.

Gnomes are typically small folk with brilliantly colored hair. Not one gnome's hair is alike, as all gnomes have their own personal shade of brillant hair. However, when a gnome gets to be a certain age, they suffer the Bleaching. Their hair starts to turn to grey to white. Another symptom is suffering from manic depression, and eventually a gnome dies of extreme bordom. Gnomes in England speak German rather than Frisian. But they usually learn English to get around the country in a hurry. Some even try to learn Norman French.
