One of my favorite characters I ever ran was a wild magic sorcerer gnome named "upendown Dibbler" who rolled WAY better than he should have. Once killed an entire goblin camp with a single twinned spell chaos bolt, only then for him to go back to town and flirt with the quest giver. Also, subtle spell prestidigitation is a 10/10 prank, highly recommend.

They are a particularly viscious totem of the crow barbarian who cackles madly and dices their way through enemies with dual daggers when raging, producing a distinct sound and LOTS of blood.

Gnome is definitely my favorite race in DnD as well. They also pair wonderfully with the druid class, especially since very few people expect the happy go lucky little fellow to turn into a raging bear and maul them across the room if they hurt his friends. The group called him "Mossbeard" since he had a very long name and kept inventing new titles and then tacking them onto his first name(s) every time he did something he considered cool, which was pretty much everything.

I had a great time, was some type of new class that had just came out(this would have been (94-95) A "time thief" he had a few time spells that would stop time for 5secs or something silly.

I've recently made some very different Rock gnomes. They live in a type of cast society, the city is kind of like those attack on Titan City rings. And going further in you go up a class. The further out you go the less technology you have, certain materials are straight up banned depending which level you are. And lower classes are never taught of what's in the higher classes, they can never go past the wall. Regardless of this, each class has still found ways to make technology with what they have available, making some pretty impressive stuff. The source of this strange society is that the leader is in contact with a corruptible artifact, and this artifact has been passed down generations after generations. The neighbors of the society are able to freely see all of the classes, and want to change this society.

Man,still remember the day i made a gnome named loretti brokenbroom,she was raised by 2 evil hags thinking she will grow to be a hag too,the time passed and she didnt turned into a hag,she continued being just a gnome,so they tried to eat her,but they ate something bad first and they died. So loretti grew up thinking she is a hag and passed 300 years in the hags house to learn magic alone... She is still level 1 for literal 300 years.

Gnomes weirdly seem like they would make the perfect crime boss. You described there view of the future as more ideas about there own ambitions rather than a solid amount of time, meaning they could be very patient in executing a plan. Couple that with a half centuries life span and a decent intelligence score and you have a 1 1/2 mafia boss

I agree with gnomes being the most chaotic neutral in D&D and all, but would not say that they are particularly scrawny or weak. I have had two gnome characters in games that I have run and both of them have done incredible feats of strength. The first (a deep gnome war magic wizard... WIZARD) was the most chaotic thing alive. That guy crawled out of a bag of devouring, tricked an NPC into climbing into said bag of devouring, sold a magical shield to another magic shield for literally all of his gold, survived an encounter with a dracolich somehow, freed some slaves, and then got blackout drunk when they reached the nearest town. The second gnome (who was a nonspecific gnome who worked as the security for a tavern) lifted several people above his head and then threw them to devastating results. Will have to tell these stories sometime on my channel. Maybe sometime in December? I don't know. Great video though Runesmith!

I once played a gnome ranger with a stupid long beard. We got robbed and I was left naked but used my gnome beard to tie it up as a loin cloth. I also befriended a wild tiger cub. I miss my gnome.

I played a rock gnome artificer once, and I had a hat that could toast bread and a heated dagger that was intended to toast bread while cutting it, and could do an extra 1d6 fire damage. I could also cast a few first-level spells and cantrips.

I'm currently playing my first ever camping as a chaotic good forest gnome :> I'm mainly a shadow domain cleric and now also partially a moonlight druid. The amount of spells and different things that I have available with this setup makes is quite... Suitable for a gnome :3

Gnomes are great. It is sort of good that generally people don't like them because when I play one I get to fully gnome out.

Seeing how much you love them, I'd suggest you can get your hands on a book called _Gnomes_ by Wil Huygen and illustrated by Rien Poortvliet, originally in Dutch. It has gorgeous illustrations and is basically an encyclopedia on Gnomes. Not D&D Gnomes, but there's clearly inspiration, such as with the inventions.

Brushing up for a one shot my sister is DMing this september. It's probably not Christmas themed but I told her I would be playing as one of Santa's elves and will speak in rhyme. I figured I would find the dnd equivalent to that so here we are.
