That colorscheme is pretty amazing.

Swoosy!

Consider me on-board as a gnome from Eastgate. Now I just need to get some castle-themed bricks....

If only LEGO would make a Dune line....

Matthias looks up from his seat near the questboard and read Benji's name. Recognition dawns across his face. "Benji Carvenhall? I heard about you in one of the taverns outside the city. Men spoke of your prowess as a warden on the fields of glory."

Matthias looks around and seems to notice the quest sign-up board for the first time. He hops down from the chair, approaches the board, and studies it for a few minutes, then quickly signs up for quests 88, 89, and 90. Rats, someone's posted a notice too high for him to reach... He pushes his chair over to the board, climbs on, and reaches high to sign up for quest 91. "When do we get started?"

Glad to see Matthias has already made an impression.

"My name is Matthias... most call me Math. I was born and raised outside Eastgate in Drandora. There's a guild of gnomish barbers there that my family has been in for generations, but hair just wasn't for me." Thinking of hair, the gnome shudders.

A tiny figure pushes through the door into Heroica Hall and uncertainly jumps into a chair much too big for him. He pushes back a peasant hood and a gnomish face appears. The gnome leans a poorly-made crossbow against the chair, accidentally loosing a crooked bolt into the floor in the process. *Thwump* The gnome looks around sheepishly at the heroes' glares and apologizes in a voice much too bass for such a small frame. "Peace to you all; I'm questing to join Heroica. Is this the right place?"
