World of Warcraft: Forever · Alliance race
Gnome
Though small in stature, the gnomes of Khaz Modan have used their great intellect to secure a place in history. Indeed, their subterranean kingdom, Gnomeregan, was once a marvel of steam-driven technology. Even so, due to a massive trogg invasion, the city was lost. Now its builders are vagabonds in the dwarven lands, aiding their allies as best they can.
10 racial abilities in Forever, and 1 Classic Era racial the Forever beta does not have. Each is shown with its Classic Era version where one exists.
