  Background and Goals:  The gnomes of Clan Tuvar have a long and glorious 
  history in Verbobonc, though that history took a darker turn in the recent past 
  with the invasion of the giant forces and the occupation of many of their homes in 
  the Kron Hills. Though the giants were driven from Verbobonc, the gnomes are 
  still feeling the effects of their temporary exile. The separation from their homes, 
  even for a brief time, hurt them deeply, and now they seek to rebuild and reclaim 
  what was destroyed and lost.

  Playing a Member of Clan Tuvar: Home, one word holds a world of meaning for

  Where laughter is the best medicine for all that ails you. Where practical jokes are 
  used to show how to not take one self so seriously. Where knowledge of the
