NETHER GNOME
Descended from curious gnomes who devised an ingenious
pathway to the Shadowfell long ago, nether gnomes are
counted among the most mysterious lines of humanoids.
They often reside in structures built of condensed shadow,
making their homes easy to mistake for unremarkable
patches of darkness oft overlooked by planar travelers.
Nether gnomes typically possess stoic features and soft
voices, and they are far less outwardly expressive than
their forest and rock cousins, leading many to view them
as distant or even standoffish.
The reality is quite the opposite. Nether gnomes are
among the kindest creatures native to the Shadowfell,
adopting their quiet mannerisms and reticent way of life
as a means of avoiding the detection of predators and
other dark forces that wander their somber plane.
They love deeply, finding beauty in the darkest situations,
and they greatly enjoy using their gifts to manipulate sha-
dow into trinkets for friends or even small shields for those
in need of protection, making them excellent adventurers.
