The Gnomes of Traykon can trace their lineage back to the lands of Arcadia and the Fey. Scattered throughout the forested areas are small communities of Gnomes. These communities are the stuff of legends. Even elves whisper tales of the beauty and mystery of the Gnome cities.

After the Magewars, these gnomes retreated even further into the uninhabited areas. Their sworn enemies are the Gray Elves who are constantly searching for the secret to these gnomes integration of natural magic into their cities despite the Veil. The Gnome leadership is handled by the druids. They act as both the spiritual and cultural leadership for their cities.

Gnome adventurers are rare but sometimes leave their communities at the direction of one of their elders.
