Gnomes approach the world with curiosity, experimentation and an enthusiasm for ingenious solutions. Workshops are places of discovery as well as work, where a failed prototype can become the beginning of another ambitious idea.
Origins and homeland
Gnomeregan lies within the mountains of Dun Morogh, close to the lands of the dwarves. Its machinery and underground halls remain an important part of gnomish heritage, even for those whose journeys take them far away.
