* BreakoutCharacter: His initial appearance was basically just meant to give you a quippy sidekick to be reinforcements against a single end boss of a dungeon. His voice acting and his lines going memetic gave him increasingly more relevance until he became one of the most well-known Gnomes in the game who has shown up at least once in every expansion since ''Cataclysm'' in some form or another (reaching a head in ''Warlords'' and ''Legion'' where he was directly one of your underlings), and is one of the alternate Mage heroes in ''VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft''.

* DoingItForTheArt: In contrast to the goblins who create and use technology mainly as a tool to make money, gnomes invent and produce new technologies for the advancement of science and technology because they view science and technology as a way of life. This mindset explains why gnomes are so dedicated to both innovate and perfect their inventions and spend much time ensuring the efficiency and security of their devices.

* {{Foil}}: To the Goblins who are their rivals and Horde counterparts. Both races are physically short and eccentric but extremely intelligent and technologically advanced races with an eccentric attitude that give a significant technological boost to their respective factions. However while Goblins' intelligence come from exposition to kajimite Gnomes are naturally intelligent as a result of them being descended from Mechagnomes. Also while the Goblins are extremely greedy, resent hierarchy and mainly use technology as a way to get rich Gnomes view technology as a way of life, respect hierarchy and as such are very organized, and are happy to use their inventions to help the other races of the Alliance without getting huge profits from it. Their engineering methods and views are also very different as Gnomes are generally very careful and orderly when they work on a new project, often spending more time working on the calculations and schematics than on the product itself which can make their engineering rather slow and costly but also more reliable and secured, whereas Goblins are often more ambitious and willing to take risks with their projects but tend to neglect security and maintenance causing their devices to be often dangerous to use and to explode. Also interestingly gnomish airships are heavier-than-air machines whereas Goblins mostly produce zepellins and other lighter-than-air gunships.

* PluckyComicRelief: To the Alliance races; their quirks and eccentricity tend to be played for laugh, and, as mentioned above, they get very little focus in the main story, usually being relegated to comedic questlines. Their cartoonish design also makes it hard to take them seriously, especially males. That said, it is worth noting most of the Alliance's advanced technological weapons are also of Gnomish make, as any unlucky Horde on the recieving end of a Gyrocopter and/or Flying Machine squadron alongside an [[AirborneAircraftCarrier Alliance Gunship]] can attest.

* SeriousBusiness: The Gnomes may be very eccentric and quirky but when it they conceive and build their technological projets they do not neglect any detail and make as much planning and calculation as possible to make sure that there is no flaw in their project, and if it fails they will spend lots of time to find the reasons of its failure and correct them. As a result their inventions are generally of better quality and much safer than Goblins' which often explode. Fittingly the only known Gnome to averts this is none other than Sicco Thermpalugg.

* BackForTheDead: Downplayed, because [[spoiler:he doesn't die as much as get put into a coma]], but after more than a decade of near abscence from any central plot, he's given a much bigger role in the Battle for Dazal'Alor, where the Horde fights him as a boss.

* AlwaysSecondBest: To Mekkatorque whose work was always more appreciated and respected than his, who always got a higher position than him and was chosen by the Gnome Council as High Tinker instead of him much to his ressentment.
* AmbitionIsEvil: He ambitionned to become High Tinker of the Gnomes and then to proclaim himself King of the Gnomes in order to create a great kingdom out of Gnomeregan that would take half of Dun Morogh even if it meant chasing the dwarves installed nearby. After the other gnomes chose his friend Gelbin Mekkatorque instead he became mad and sought to usurp him by creating a radiation bomb in order to kill many of his own kind and discredit Mekkatorque.

* BrilliantButLazy: Gelbin admits that Thermaplugg was very creative and enthustiastic as a tinker, even for a gnome, having brilliant ideas several times. However, unlike Mekkatorque and most other gnomes, he also refuses to bother himself with calculations and tests to verify the viability and security of his inventions, forcing Mekkatorque to do it in his stead, and causing his radiation bomb to backfire on him as its effects were far stronger and less controlable that he had imagined.

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Sicco Thermaplugg is noted to have been one of the most creative and enthusiastic of the Gnomes tinkers, often coming with great or even genius ideas. However for all his scientific and technological knowledge he lacks patience and caution and neglects calculations and details that causes him to rush his tinker works and plans which caused Mekkatorque to spend a lot of time correcting his mistakes. During the fall of Gnomeregan he used a radioactive bomb in order to kill a portion of the Gnomes and discredit Mekkatorque but it turned out that the radioctivity was far more dangerous and lethal that he expected causing the death of 90% of Gnomeragan's population and he didn't even think of creating something to protect himself from the radiation nor of putting himself at a safe distance from it causing him to be irradiated too.

* SmugSnake: Sicco Thermaplugg is clearly far from the great King of the Gnomes he envisions himself to be. While not without scientific prowess, imagination and cunning his planning and technological abilities are strongly undermined by his overconfidence and slopiness which cause him to botch his calculations and overlook any flaw his plans and inventions may have. Each of his major plans have failed and backfired spectacularly on him.

->''"Necessity is the first cousin of invention."''

The current High Tinker of the Gnomes, Geblin is a renowned inventor and is praised for his great intellect. However, during a terrible Trogg invasion, Geblin was forced to abandon the gnomes home city of Gnomergan after following the advice of his [[TreacherousAdvisor second-in-command]], Mekgineer Thermaplug, and unleashing a radiation bomb to stop the troggs. The fallout from the bomb made Gnomeregan uninhabitable, and poisoned many of Mekkatorque's own subjects, turning them into hideous and insane Lepper Gnomes. To make matters worse, Thermaplugg took control of the city for himself and declared himself the new king.
