A Gnome Warrior

The Gnomes are an ancient race relative to Dwarves. The Gnomes are shorter than Dwarves but have the same cultural background and share many traits. They speak a dialect version of the Dwarfish language. But the Gnomes seeing the Dwarfs as stupid and oafish, as Dwarfs thinking that Gnomes mischievous and troublesome. Though the gnomes are not basically evil they are very short tempered and difficult to deal with. It has been known for Gnomes to imprisone other races - especially humans who ventured to angry them. Also the Gnomes are particularly sensitive about their squeaky voices.[1]

Like Dwarfs Gnomes also live in underground vaverns and hate Greenskins.[1]

In battles Gnomes fight in infantry and cavalry formations (using ponies instead of horses). There are also exist a Gnomish wizards that can cast presumably illusion spells.[1]
