Book Text:
Gnomes are well known for their creativity and willingness to make the impossible happen. They have always walked their own path, almost oblivious to the opinions and often disparagement of others. Their world is full of idiosyncrasies, ritual, habit and relentless effort. These volumes
| explore all of those aspects as they are expressed in the symbols, art, and mechanical creations of Gnomes from their first diagrams to modern Gnomish art. It appears that the author's intent is to discover how these artistic expressions affect and reflect the lifestyles and attitudes of
|
| the society. Once those symbols are discovered, the author finds creative ways to put them to use on armor.
This volume expands upon a couple of the key symbols discovered in the first volume. These are the symbols of royals and leaders. They show up in
| Gnomish art of all types. They have become the dominant symbols of the society. The author also explores the colors chosen by the most inspirational heroes. Among the pages of discussion about these symbols is a pattern. This pattern uses the most
|
| powerful ancient symbols and melds them with powerful colors to produce an image that appears both timeless and fresh. You know that you will be able to reproduce this pattern many times before the book becomes worn and you must replace it.
To create pattern for
| tailoring armor templates based on these patterns you will need this book, a large bottle of ink, a roll of good quality vellum, a quill and a compacted backpack to hold the patterns you will make. You'll also need a book binding to do the work.
