* OutOfFocus: Of all the playable races in the game, the Gnomes are consistently out of focus of the narrative and tend to only appear in moments of comedic quests. They still have yet to reclaim their home and very few, if any, Gnomes have been a major player in any of the expansions.

A high ranking agent in the Gnomeregan Covert Ops dispatched to Tanaris to see that Gnomeregan's interests are secured. She plays cute and innocent, but it's an act to cover the determined and (if necessary) ruthless agent within.

* 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 Assault of Dazal'Alor, where the Horde fights him as a boss.

Added DiffLines:

* HeroAntagonist: Much like most bosses in Battle for Dazar'alor, his only crime is being on the opposing faction (although he's smug and racist during the raid, so at least he's not very sympathetic).


Added DiffLines:

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: During his raid encounter in Battle for Dazar'alor, he throws racist remarks against Horde players left and right.

** And now again in ''Battle for Azeroth''. Not only does he show up in a raid,''he's a raid boss''.

The gnomes of Gnomeregan aided the Alliance in the Second War but were absent during the Third War due to an invasion by the barbaric caveman-like troggs. The gnomes attempted to nuke Gnomeregan to kill the troggs but the plans went awry due to the treachery of Mekgineer Sicco Thermaplugg. High Tinker Gelbin Mekkatorque and his people were sheltered within Ironforge with their dwarven allies but following ''Cataclysm'', many have left to retake Gnomeregan from Thermaplugg and his leper gnomes.

Much like their allies, the dwarves, it was revealed in Wrath of the Lich King that gnomes were originally robots made by the Titans to help the Keepers, but that they had mutated into their current state by the Old Gods.

* TheRival: With Goblins. The two of them are practically always at each other's troath or in competition to prove who's the best at creating machines.

to:

* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: A strange case of the trope. As a quest chain in ''Wrath'' revealed, gnomes can actually be reverted back into mechagnomes (and one quest allows you to convert mechagnomes back into gnomes). This meant that all gnomes are "technically" mechagnomes under their flesh. The quest chain implies that while some gnomes do not quite like their time as mechagnomes, other gnomes felt that they had become "complete" as mechagnomes.
