gnome leotards

Gnomey's garments are, um, a bit tight. It's possible that I'd never even created a gnome PC for BG1 back when, but if I had, I'd forgotten what the gnome paper doll looked like after all these years. It's different in BG2, right? I don't recall Jan Jansen looking like that.

    I remember that female dwarves had the exact same paper doll as the male ones in the original BG1.

    Doesn't look to tight to me... I dunno, I hear leotard and I imagine David Bowie in Labyrinth >_>

    That gnomes shirt looks pretty loose around the belt. Those shorts are kind of funny, but when you have big thighs and little ankles, it's hard to find a proper fit. Poor gnomes need to import some gnomish tailors.

    They're forced to wear them like that so they can't smuggle turnips along the sword coast so easily.

    Yeah it does fall looser below the belt, that's true. On the torso not so much.

    It's because they're sexy... and they know it.

    Actually, isn't the gnome paper doll in BG1 same as a dwarf's? Maybe they did this to try to differentiate gnomes from dwarves.

    I think they used to be the same as dwarves...don't remember.
    I just remember, the old-vanilla (not Tutu) BG 1 human female warriors used to look like bodybuilders in one-piece swimsuit. Now, that was a leotard!

    They remade most of the avatars for this game, something wich I'm thankful for because now I can make a female gnome illusionist and not have her have a beard in game. Shes part of my Black Pit crew

    Regardless, gnome paperdolls do tend to look a bit on the silly side. The females have pointed shoes.

    @Tresset Fighter/Illusionist. Can't wear armor in order to be able to spellcast. He has profs in longbow and darts.
