Gnomes

Determined. Strategic. Ingenious.

Gnomes are practical and pragmatic. A long-thinking people, they approach all problems and goals rationally. Gnome society is divided into three sects: the Scholars, inventors of wondrous magical devices; the Praetorians, a military force renowned for their martial skill; and the Templars, the political strategists who set the agenda for their culture.

In the arid land of Detyre, the gnomes have built the great city of Adessa as a monument to their progress. The city’s grand library is a storehouse of Amalur’s wisdom and knowledge, containing artifacts dating back to the dawn of history. What secrets the gnomes keep for themselves is a topic of frequent speculation among those who question their motives.
