Homebrew Giant Gnome Species Details

A constant hum of busy activity pervades the warrens and neighborhoods where gnomes form their close-knit communities. Louder sounds punctuate the hum. But once in so many years, when stars align a certain way, a gnome of no normal nature is born. they simply are giant gnomes, while a gnome’s personality is writ large in his or her appearance, this kind of gnome is also especially large.

Vibrant Expression

A gnome’s energy and enthusiasm for living shines through every inch of his or her body, Gnomes average slightly over 3 feet tall and weigh 40 to 45 pounds,
but this is no ordinary gnome. A giant gnome stands between 5 and 7 feet tall, they weigh between 180 and 270 pounds, Their tan or brown faces are usually adorned with broad smiles (beneath their prodigious noses), and their bright eyes shine with excitement. Their fair hair has a tendency to stick out in every direction, as if expressing the gnome’s insatiable interest in everything around.

Delighted and Tough

As far as giant gnomes are concerned, being alive is a wonderful thing, and they squeeze every ounce of enjoyment out of their life, just like any other gnome, Though gnomes live to about four centuries, a giant gnome's lifespan will last about 200 to 300 years. 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 giant gnomes seem to not worry at all, they find enjoyment in the little things like: invention, creation and will be at peace at present. 

Giant Gnomes speak as if they can’t get the thoughts out of their heads fast enough. Even as they offer ideas and opinions on a range of subjects, they still manage to listen carefully to others, adding the appropriate exclamations of surprise and appreciation along the way. Giant gnomes mostly live in a far place, Far away from home, mostly alone.

Even though their red nose and bright smile will make you think so, a giant gnome is not at all helpless.
A Giant gnomes fist will knock you down like any other, and their heavy wide feet can run for distances long.

Bright Burrows

Gnomes make their homes in hilly, wooded lands. They live underground but get more fresh air than dwarves do, enjoying the natural, living world on the surface whenever they can. Their homes are well hidden by both clever construction and simple illusions. Welcome visitors are quickly ushered into the bright, warm burrows. Those who are not welcome are unlikely to find the burrows in the first place.

Gnome Names

Gnomes love names, and most have half a dozen or so. A gnome’s mother, father, clan elder, aunts, and uncles each give the gnome a name, and various nicknames from just about everyone else might or might not stick over time. Gnome names are typically variants on the names of ancestors or distant relatives, though some are purely new inventions. When dealing with humans and others who are “stuffy” about names, a gnome learns to use no more than three names: a personal name, a clan name, and a nickname, choosing the one in each category that’s the most fun to say.

Seeing the World

Curious and impulsive, gnomes might take up adventuring as a way to see the world or for the love of exploring. As lovers of gems and other fine items, some gnomes take to adventuring as a quick, if dangerous, path to wealth. Regardless of what spurs them to adventure, gnomes who adopt this way of life eke as much enjoyment out of it as they do out of any other activity they undertake, sometimes to the great annoyance of their adventuring companions.

ALWAYS APPRECIATIVE
