Gnomes
From Liquipedia Dota 2 Wiki
Gnomes are a race of people in the lore of Dota 2.
Description
[edit]Little is known about them, but they are probably short like the typical gnomes that are depicted in fiction.
Culture
[edit]For unknown reasons, gnomes practice having charms: items that confer blessings or protection to the possessor.[1]
Items
[edit]The Quelling Blade once belonged to a gnome, who has now passed into oblivion. But their axe lives on, which can be used to effectively maneuver through the woods.
- Its renowned ability to cut down trees garners rejection from nature's guardians, such as Hoodwink[2] and Windranger.[3]
- Regardless, this mundane tool is valued by a Rogue Spectre, who believes that such a tool is essential for their victory.[4] May be a reference to gameplay, though.
The Ring of Regen is considered a good luck charm among them.
