Nender

Nender is a region in Chimmo, Nova.

A wild region with untouched beauty and wildlife, the deep gnomes that "rule" this land are rarely found above ground, leaving the area almost exclusively to the hands of nature. They don't even particularly care about the overground boundaries, but the Forest and Rock gnomes agreed to give them their fair share and they stick to this agreement. Although they have broken through to the Underdark and regularly explore it for its riches, they keep a strict guard to ensure the inhabitants don't invade the overworld (but that's not saying none do). Nender has no strict government or ruler, but instead has a loose collection of high status individuals who have managed to accumulate substantial influence. The deep gnomes are perfectly friendly, although quite blunt and jaded. Some of them will join the other gnomes for celebrations and they are perfectly happy to show visitors around.
