Gnome

Before the great pilgrimage the gnome race once had the most powerful empire in Alderheim which was advance in magic and technology. However, the gnome empire collapsed due their own hubris, with their experimentation causing them to become infertile and unable to live outside their life support suits. As their empire fell gnomes retreated into their strongholds becoming the tomb for many a gnome.

The surviving gnomes in Alderheim have lost themselves in madness. This has led some gnomes to leave their strongholds and venture into the world with their madness making them to take on a persona and losing all memory of being a gnome. The first documentation of this was Henry a gnome who believed he was a human farmer.
