Free gaming has been one of the best features of internet gaming. Recently I came across this game called Bling Gnome
To run this Free Online Game, you need to download the software called Dungeon Runners.
Bling Gnome from the Dungeon Runner's game is a tugged out gnome straight out of the 90's that turns your unwanted items into gold and shovels it up. You can literally watch the gnome pop a GOLDEN squat when you need your items.
Check out Bling Gnome and see what these pimped out bling gnomes can do!
A gnome is a mythical creature characterized by its extremely small size and subterranean free lifestyle.
The word gnome is derived from the New Latin gnomus. It is often claimed to descend from the Greek gnosis, "knowledge", but more likely comes from genomos "earth-dweller", in which case the omission of e is, as the OED calls it, a blunder. It is also possible that Paracelsus simply made the word up.
Paracelsus includes gnomes in his list of elementals, as earth elementals. He describes them as two spans high, and very taciturn.[1]
In Folklore
Often featured in Germanic fairy tales, including those by the Brothers Grimm,[2] the gnome often resembles a gnarled old man, living deep underground, who guards buried treasure.[3] Because of this, Swiss bankers are sometimes disparagingly referred to as the Gnomes of Zürich. Gnomes feature in the legends of many of central, northern and eastern European lands by other names: a kaukis is a Prussian gnome, tomten in Sweden, and barbegazi are gnome-like creatures with big feet in the traditions of France and Switzerland. In Iceland, gnomes (vættir) are so respected that roads are re-routed around areas said to be inhabited by them.[4] Some confusion arises as the gnome is one of many similar but subtly different creatures in European folklore; mythical creatures such as goblins and dwarves are often represented as gnomes, and vice versa.
Individual gnomes are not very often detailed or featured as characters in stories, but in Germanic folklore, Rübezahl, the lord over the underworld, was sometimes referred to as a mountain gnome.[5] According to some traditions, the gnome king is called Gob.[citation needed]
