capuchincaptions-48Thank you everyone for your votes.  It really appears that people are really in support of me playing a gnome in our next campaign.  Good call.  But now I have another conundrum… what do I name them?   

This is a very important question.  After all the reading I’ve been doing on gnomes it has become very apparent that names are VITAL.  Throughout their lives gnomes are continually given names.  The names are from their mothers, fathers, grandparents, elders, friends, clansman etc etc etc.

Therefore, after my husband finished his off the shelf review of the Gary Gygax’s Extroaordinary Book of Names, I stole it from him and did some rolling up of possible names for my gnome.

Now a little background.  I’ve decided on Historian for my class.  Is it in the core books???  Well no… but I found a great description online and it will basically make my character an Indiana Jones style of gnome.

Also, I still have not decided if the character will be male or female and that is why I have 2 lists of names. 

Please vote and let me know if you think I should play a male or female character and which name I should choose!

I’m liking Emperor Nordgam Berwick with Black hair. It reminds me of the crazy King of Ireland in Braveheart.

I also like the Crown Princess Runa Hogben with Frost hair. If she’s crown princess will she be constantly fighting off annoying suitors?

I like Viscountess Naina Cuss with Fire hair. That’s a fighter, there! (or, at least, ornery!)

My wife and I tried that for awhile — played as a married gnome couple. I was the archaeologist, with a whip — ended up witha riding lizard. Heh. BTW, where did you find the historian class?
