Culture and Cultural Heritage
As far as gnomes are concerned, being alive is a wonderful thing, and they squeeze every ounce of enjoyment out of their three to five centuries of life. Humans might wonder about getting bored over the course of such a long life, and elves take plenty of time to savor the beauties of the world in their long years, but gnomes seem to worry that even with all that time, they can’t get in enough of the things they want to do and see.
Common Taboos
The worse thing you can do to a Gnome is insulting their nose. They also prefer pranks and games over to strife and conflict.
Common Myths and Legends
