Gnome Balooner

(image)

Inventiveness may lead gnomes to places that seem most unnatural for them. One such place is open air. Gnomes cannot fly except by using their contraption known as baloon. It is made of thick fabric drenched in a mixture of liquids to make it airtight. Enormous pieces of this fabric are sewed together into an equally enormous sack that is meant to hold nothing but air. When the air contained inside this sack is heated it becomes lighter and carries the sack up into the sky with enough force to also carry some cargo with it. Baloons are primarily used as a means of travel, transportation and reconaissance. During war their cargo often includes so-called thunderballs that vanish with loud thundering sound and maul everything around shortly after they are set on fire. However formidable this weapon is, baloon itself is too vulnerable to any sharp weapons and projectiles and its huge size makes it hard to miss.
