Talk:Deep gnome

The Svirfneblin race does not have facial hair. How possibly Belwar can have a beard? - 88.234.168.103


 * I had a look at some sources. It looks like older sources (Drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark*, Monster Manual 3.5) have male svirfneblin as bald, but say nothing about beards. Later sources (Races of Faerûn, Underdark (sourcebook)) make them entirely bald and beardless. It looks like they might have lost their hair over the editions.


 * * The given image of Belwar Dissengulp comes from DDGttUD. It also shows svirfneblin with moustaches.


 * Note that female svirfneblin generally have hair in all sources. — BadCatMan (talk) 08:50, February 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * For what it's worth, the Fiend Folio 1st edition describes deep gnomes as having "grey eyes and tend to be bald." &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 15:03, February 2, 2013 (UTC)
