Dark Legacy :: manual races Deep Gnome
Deep Gnome
Secretive and mysterious deep-dwelling gnomes.
Deep gnomes are a short, thin and gnarled race. They have rock colored skin,
and while the males are usually bald, the females have pure white hair. Deep
gnomes live in hidden underground communities in the deepest layer of the
earth. Their hostile environment forces them to live a very reclusive and
isolated life. Deep Gnomes have a knack for illusions, but have also developed
extra abilities to protect against magic and detection. They sport an almost a
sickly love for stone, precious metals and gems. Deep gnomes are an inherently
good race but are usually harsh and distrustful towards outsiders. Even more so
than their rock gnome brethren, they have practically no contact with the
surface world.
