Gnomes
Gnomes are to dwarves what pixies are to elves. That is to say, they are smaller, smarter, less-strong cousins. Where dwarves are known for their mental dullness but great wisdom, gnomes are known for quick minds and a very analytical nature. They are nowhere near as strong or hearty as dwarves are, but are much the same, being creatures of earth who can't swim (and thus drown easily like dwarves) and have eyes attuned to seeing in the dark. Where a dwarf would see a mine shaft and it's glittering jewels, though, a gnome notices the girders and struts and supports within the mine and contemplates ways to make them better. Gnomes love technology, metallurgy, and any other form of science. This makes them natural mages, possessing mental powers that rival elves. They are not, however, a stealthy race like elves, goblins, or halflings. They are engineers, architects, artisans, and sometimes workers of great magicks.
Goblins
Goblins are almost universally shunned because they are almost all natural criminals, cutthroats, and killers. Every crime boss or thief master is a goblin, with very few exceptions. They are extremely thrifty, known to argue over a single silver piece, and will drop water in the desert before dropping money. Goblins have diabolical minds, and few torture devices can be named which a goblin did not think up. They are extremely smart and also have a knack for survival. Stealth comes naturally to them, and their dusky grey to green, sometimes even blue or black, skin tones make them hard to spot at night.
Goblins are not really warlike, and don't really appreciate overt combat. It's not their style. A goblin would much rather satisfy its sadistic needs through thievery or betrayal than through honorable combat.
Halflings
Halflings are a quiet folk who like to keep to themselves, and are not often seen filling the role of an adventurer. They would much rather sit complacently by a fireplace enjoying a good book, good drink, and good conversation. They are, however, very adept thieves, and have the mental capabilities to be quite powerful mages. They are about half as tall as the average human, thus the name halfling. Because of this small size and the fact that most devices are built to human proportions, halflings are masters at lockpicking, disarming traps, and jewel craft. They also have very easy access to pockets, and there is no door a halfling can not open and slip through with the utmost of silence.
Pixies
Pixies are very much like the elves...and share with them a vulnerability to iron weapons. They also share the nature-loving attitude and peaceful demeanor, but beyond this pixies reach an extreme. They are extremely magical creatures which, unlike elves, fly everywhere they go. Their wings are fairly redundant, as they don't really use them to fly. It's the sheer magical nature of a pixie that gives it it's special qualities.
They are a race of very small size, and because of their inquisitive nature and mental power, tend also to be tinkerers and sometimes pranksters. While a pixie may be thousands of years old, almost all of them act like human children...
Drow
Drow are an elven race that live below the surface of the realms. They have evolved to live in total darkness miles below the surface. They live in groups called houses and the female tend to take rule over males. Males are often used as sacrifice to there female goddess Lloth. They have the ability to see creatures in the dark and to see long distances. However they can be harmed with any kind of light. They make good warriors and thieves.
Humans
Humans are the most common race in the world, and make up the majority of adventurers. Although they have no special talents like the other races, they are more versatile, being skilled in all four classes. Humans may also train their primary stat higher than any other race, and are able to gain more benefit from magical devices.
