Elven Gnome Traits

Your elven gnome character has certain characteristics from the genetic pools of both elves and gnomes, though not necessarily the best combination. Traits of subraces will usually not carry on.

Ability Score Increase

Your Dexterity and Intelligence scores both increase by 1.

Age

Elven Gnomes reach physical maturity at about the same age as humans.  They can live 500 to nearly 550 years.

Size

Size of elven gnomes varies wildly, from around 3 1/2 feet up to 5 1/2 feet tall.  The average is closer to 4-5 feet tall, as this is a pretty rare race to see.  Your size is Medium or Small.

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Darkvision

With your elven and gnomish ancentry, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Keen Elven Senses

You have proficiency in the Perception skill.

Gnome Cunning

You have advantage on all Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma saving throws against magic.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common and Gnomish. The Gnomish language, which uses the Dwarvish script, is renowned for its technical treatises and its catalogs of knowledge about the natural world.

Minimal Sleep

Due to your elven blood, the gnomish need to sleep is halved.  You only require 3-4 hours of sleep per day, and are not affected by the REM cycle.  Light naps work great.  Most Elven Gnomes participate in a biphasic or polyphasic sleep pattern.  After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit that a human does from 8 hours of sleep.
