History
The disaster in Gnomeregan forced its people to seek shelter with their dwarven allies. In this era, the lost city remains a wound rather than a safely reclaimed capital.

Culture
Experimentation is a way of approaching the world, not simply a profession. Inventions can be practical, ambitious or alarming, but the optimism behind them helps hold a displaced community together.
Origins and homeland
Dun Morogh places gnomish refugees beside Ironforge and the roads leading back to Gnomeregan. Their close relationship with the dwarves supports survival while preserving a distinct technical culture.
Starting journey
The ordinary adventure starts in Coldridge Valley alongside Dwarf adventurers. Later starting areas from other editions do not replace that historical route here. Death Knight has a separate introductory experience.
