Player > Ancestry > Gnome > Heritages
A diverse collection of oddballs, gnomes have all sorts of peculiar strains among their bloodlines. Choose one of the following gnome heritages at 1st level.
The color of your hair and skin is mutable, possibly due to latent magic. You can slowly change the vibrancy and the exact color, and the coloration can be different across your body, allowing you to create patterns or other colorful designs. It takes a single action for minor localized shifts and up to an hour for dramatic shifts throughout your body. While you’re asleep, the colors shift on their own in tune with your dreams, giving you an unusual coloration each morning. When you’re in an area where your coloration is roughly similar to the environment (for instance, forest green in a forest), you can use the single action to make minor localized shifts designed to help you blend into your surroundings. This grants you a +2 circumstance bonus to Stealth checks until your surroundings shift in coloration or pattern.
The blood of the fey is so strong within you that you’re truly one of them. You gain the fey trait, in addition to the gnome and humanoid traits. Choose one cantrip from the primal spell list (page 314). You can cast this spell as a primal innate spell at will. A cantrip is heightened to a spell level equal to half your level rounded up. You can change this cantrip to a different one from the same list once per day by meditating to realign yourself with the First World; this is a 10-minute activity that has the concentrate trait.
You see all colors as brighter, hear all sounds as richer,
and especially smell all scents with incredible detail.
You gain a special sense: imprecise scent with a range of
30 feet. This means you can use your sense of smell to
determine the exact location of a creature (as explained
on page 465). The GM will usually double the range if
you’re downwind from the creature or halve the range
if you’re upwind.
In addition, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to
Perception checks whenever you’re trying to locate an
undetected creature that is within the range of your scent.
Whether from a connection to dark or shadowy fey, from the underground deep gnomes also known as svirfneblin, or another source, you can see in complete darkness. You gain darkvision.
Lost Omens Character Guide p.31
You have an incredibly strong connection to the positive energy that flows through the First World, making it harder to attack your life force with negative energy. You gain negative resistance equal to half your level (minimum 1). When you have the doomed condition, the condition affects you as if its value was 1 lower than it actually is (doomed 1 has no effect, doomed 2 causes you to die at dying 3, and so on).
Some other source of magic has a greater hold on
you than the primal magic of your fey lineage does.
This connection might come from an occult plane
or an ancient occult song; a deity, celestial, or fiend;
magical effluent left behind by a mage war; or ancient
rune magic.
Choose arcane, divine, or occult. You gain one
cantrip from that magical tradition’s spell list (pages
307–315). You can cast this spell as an innate spell
at will, as a spell of your chosen tradition. A cantrip
is heightened to a spell level equal to half your level
rounded up. Whenever you gain a primal innate spell
from a gnome ancestry feat, change its tradition from
primal to your chosen tradition.
