A famous Gnomic saying goes, "If you want to undo a knot by hacking it to death, get a [[Gor'Tog]]. If you want it unraveled, get a '''Gnome'''." This simple truth is a cornerstone in understanding Gnomes. Though smaller in stature and physically weaker than even the Halflings, Gnomes are wily, quick on their feet, and excellent at solving problems.

Originally, Gnomes eked out a desperate, savage subsistence at the bottom of the food chain. At some undisclosed point in history they formed an alliance with the [[Gorbesh]] Empire. In exchange for safety from predators, they provided the war-like race with clever inventions and served as advisors. Nearly all the Gnomes in the Dragon's Realms were among, or decended from, those who defected with the [[Kaldar]] to journey north. Gorbesh Gnomes are almost never seen outside the Empire cities, as they are guarded over as jealously as treasure.
