My Gnome's name is Ra'nald Sniggum. He is 3'6 and 45 lbs, with black hair, green eyes, and a dark tan complextion (sp?). Alignment is CG.

Stats:

Str: 16
Dex: 14
Con: 16
Int: 14
Wis: 12
Cha: 10

I dont have any idea for a BG really, I just think the idea of a raging gnome w/ a greataxe yelling crazy warcries and threating to bite off the BBEG's kneecaps sounds really fun! :D

Any ideas for a possable BG? My dm likes for her players to at least give a general BG to incorperate into her world. Thanks in advance!

Ra'nald was born on a farm just outside (insert name of town). He was from a family that had strong ties to the land, but not much talant with mechanical devices. As he grew up he learned to appreciate the land and the outdoors, taking long walks when he had a moment away from work. His first day of school, he shows up dressed as he had every day until this time. The other children laugh and make fun of him and the tormenting only gets worse when they find out that he has a complete lack of ability or interest in the arts of Gond. The days go by as he is taunted and pushed around until one day as he is returning to the farm after school one of the kids goes too far. Ra'nald's younger sister had come down the path from the house to the main road to meet him and one of the other kids who had dogged him from the schoolhouse threw a rock that missed Ra'nald and hit her instead.

Something inside him snapped. In a blind rage he attacked the three children who had followed him rendering two unconsious in a few swift blows and almost killing the rock thrower. If a passing bard had not interviened and cast a cure spell on rockthrower then it would have been a murder trial, rather than aggrivated assault. Ra'nald was found guilty and banished.
