MARK OF SCRIBING

The Mark of Scribing deals with communication-both the written and spoken word. A gnome who bears the mark can feel words as though they are living creatures, struggling to make their meaning known. The mark provides a range of gifts. It translates languages, but it also allows its bearer to communicate with others at a distance.

If you’re a gnome with the Mark of Scribing, you have this subrace, with the following traits.
