A Gnomeling, the product of a Gnome and a Halfing, is said to bring out the best traits of both races.

Kindred Spirits

Being born of Gnome and Halfling blood results in a people who are some of the most curious and kind hearted people that you will ever meet. It is not uncommon for them to take up the adventure’s life, they are driven by their curiosity and love of helping other. To them, there’s always a new adventure just around the corner; always another place to see and another person in need.

The Half-Bloods Without Strife

Some of the half-blood races such as Half-Elves, and Half-Orcs tend to be seen as outsiders to their people. They are not seen as a true blood to either side of their heritage. This is not an issue with Gnomelings, even though they are a half-blood race most people cannot tell the different between a Gnomeling to either a Gnome or Halfling. When it comes to either side of their blood, most couldn’t care less; to them family is family.

Gnomeling Names

Gnomelings often use either the Gnome, Halfling naming conventions, or a combination of two.
