			The gnomes of Bloodline Withycombe descend from the original burghal gnomes, who left the forests for the shelter of the [[Human Empire]].
			They reside in brick-lined compounds deep underground, and they often serve host families as expert gardeners and housekeepers. Their attention to detail
			and manual dexterity makes them skillful tailors and jewelry makers--as well as expert thieves. The true calling of the Withycombe gnomes lies in mechanical
			design and tinkering, however, as they compensate for their diminutive stature with elaborate labor-saving devices. A cheerful people, the Withycombes
			delight in toys, gems, and poetry (however bad).
