Gnomes are small humanoids known for their eccentric sense of humor, inquisitiveness, and engineering prowess. Gnomes have long spindly fingers and large heads, which have a subtly different shape than those of other humanoids. Gnomes tend to be around three feet in height and unnervingly slender, although slightly taller than halflings. Compared to their bodies, they have surprising toughness, as their bones are of a harder but lighter cast than those of humans. Male gnomes tend to be slightly larger and not as slender. Females tend to be slightly smaller and more feminine, possessing longer eyelashes, slimmer waists, and many of the other differences also exhibited by humans. Gnomes are an intelligent and innately curious race. Gnomes may lack the drive and ambition of other races, but their creativity gives them a strong ability for ingenuity.

The Yordle are a race of spirits who generally take the appearance of mammalian bipeds. They mostly reside in mystical planes, but venture down to live in inumerous locations in Smolarion.

Their skin texture ranges from being lightly covered in fur, to moderately fuzzy, to ultimately being excessively bushy.

Halflings are short humanoids and among the smallest of the civilized races of Smolarion. They tend to be around three feet tall, though mostly human in proportion, with perhaps rounder heads and slightly more childlike proportions.
