The Preserve – Gnome – Knight – Draconic – Sphinx
Faction: Preserve
Aka: The Grizzly Gnomes.
Alignment: Neutral
Motto: “Nature changes, if you give it an certain amount of time. But you can make it changes faster, if you want.”
Worship: The Tree Spirits, the Stone Spirits, the River Spirits, the Forest Sphinxes.
Colors: Gray, Dark Green.
Symbol: A climbing plant around a stone.
About the Preserve:
The Grizzly Gnomes are a curious people. As other gnomes they like philosophy and sciences, but they also have a strong connection with nature – as their neighbors, the wood elves. But differently than wood elves, they don’t adapt themselves to nature: they adapt the nature. Their buildings are an example: made by stone from near rivers, and the living tree, on their villages.
Their life style is ruled by their traditions. The most adult gnome dedicates part of day to work at his or her job (common jobs are construction, mining, engineering and hunting, for male gnomes, and cook, trader and agriculturist for females gnomes), other part to study (it’s a fact: every gnome is in a eternal search for knowledge), and an other to dedicate to his or her hobbies (as usual music or craft) – and, of course, a part of day, know as ‘night’, is used to sleep.
Their society is ruled by the Priests of Nature, the wisest among the gnomes. The Priests are the only that can speak to the Sphinxes, getting from they advices and counsels. The Sphinxes, for the gnomes, are sacred creatures, because they were made by spirits of Earth and Water.
When a gnome reaches the teenage, he or she is taken to see the Sphinx, and they say what the gnome will be: if the gnome will be an explorer and archaeologist or a carpenter.
Some gnomes are chosen to become Priests of Nature, then he or she go to a monastery, to study. The Priests believe that if they want to understand the Truth of Nature, they have to understand the nature! Then, they study from botany to astronomy.
The ‘Gnomic’ nation is divided into villages, each village is ruled by a patriarch, who usually is the eldest Priest of the village, and all patriarchs are yielding to the High Patriarch (or High Matriarch).
Story: *well… I really need to improve my English… but I fink that my text is ‘understandable’…
At begin, gnomes live separated in tree tribes, each tribe independent from others. The tribes are the Tribe of River, The Tribe of Stone and The Tribe of Forest. Their society were essentially similar to the actual. The tribes traded with the others, but didn’t exist a ‘friendship spirit’ between them.
Someday, the Lizardmen, lords of swaps, started war against the Tribe of River, fighting the gnomes for their lands. The Tribe of River suffer two great loses at the first week in war, but, when the Forest Patriarch offered help the River gnomes refused.
Furious with the refuse, the Forest Patriarch isolate his people form other tribes. The Lizardmen army advanced into the gnome territory and attacked the Tribe of Stone. If the tree tribes united their armies they are able to defeat the invaders, but, the attacked tribes don’t try to help the other, and the Forest Patriarch is angry with the other Patriarchs.
After a month in fierce and bloody war, a powerful warrior, named Mirkaied, from the Forest Tribe, opposing his Patriarch, went to war, helping the River Tribe. Mirkaied fought, but the Lizards defeat the River army, and capture Vanyygashllaia, the capitol of the River Tribe. Mirkaied return to his tribe and talk to them about a union with the other tribes. The people, knowing that will be the next to be attacked, accept his idea, and the Patriarch, after speak with the Sphinxes, agree with them.
The Tribe of Forest join the weakened Tribe of River, but isn’t enough. Mirkaied went to talk with the Stone Patriarch, and, after some negotiation, the Patriarch accepted.
The army of the three tribes marched on Vanyygashllaia, where Mirkaied become famous after defeat two powerful enemies: the Lizarmen’s commander, and a huge basilisk, who ate many gnomes before.

I won't have to rush to write the history then, which is the boring part for me. Who needs history!
Hopefully nobody realizes that my pic of the 'Dome' town is actually of the Dubai Snowdome. If I didn't clip out the lower half the picture, you would see people skiing and sipping hot chocolate.
