EMO DnD Classes pt 13: Gnome

As party Druid married a gnome and two others have gnome lovers in gnome town and druids bodyguard is currently reincarnated as a gnome here is my one class gnome. More linked to living things and natural places and quite like working in the sun unlike Dwarfs. Some slow spell progression and reasonable warriors even smaller than Dwarves. Variant gnomes include other critters like stove trolls, forest moss men and other little fairy folk. Some varieties even live in underlands, inside trees and hills, rocks, barns, roof spaces, cellars and other places. Not all are jolly, some melancholic, other cold and cynical some mean.

-----------afterthoughts--------------
(i also added more specialist)

I seem to have oddly allowed a diminutive race to use polearms unlike dwarfs and halflings. My gnomes are 1-3 feet long and have much finer proportions than barrel like halflings and dwarves. Gnomes are a bit of a mash up of other demi humans.

Will revise my elf and dwarf races to include more supernatural fey creatures and non humans. I could also use gnome features for some goblinoid champions and use elfs for magic orcs too. Use same for beast men casters.

Proven to be more fun than i planned.
