Editing Half-Gnome (section)

==Tellenish Half-Gnome==
Whilst the [[Krynn|Krynnish]] Half-Gnome is the only official Half-Gnome in [[Dungeons & Dragons|D&D]] so far, there is an alternative. [[Kingdoms of Kalamar]] introduced its own, far less annoying take on the half-gnome in [[Monster Manual|Dangerous Denizens: The Monsters of Tellene]]. Tellenish half-gnomes are sometimes born of arranged marriages, just like the Tellenish [[Half-Dwarf]], but less frequently. More commonly, the result from one-night stands that have a long-lasting after-affect; usually, these are the result of [[Human]] females being wooed by pervy [[Gnome]] males, but obviously you could always play the other way around - why should [[Human]] guys turn down the [[shortstack]]s?

Tellenish Half-Gnomes are often mistaken for unusually short humans; standing between 4' and 4'6" tall, their only real difference from ordinary humans is the slightly larger than average size of their ears, eyes and noses.

Naturally adaptable and light-hearted, half-gnomes get on well with almost everyone, even [[hobgoblin]]s and their halfbreeds, although orcs are a rare exception.
