Gnome Subrace[edit]
Jungle Gnomes are gnomes that evolved in the deep tropical jungle. They rarely interact with the other races of the world and generally keep to their small villages built high in the canopy. Their society is tribal and does not make use of "advanced" materials such as metals other than gold found in streams. Physically they appear similar to Forest gnomes except they have developed a green ting to their hair and skin which assists them with blending in with their surrounds and helps with hiding from the more dangerous predators like panthers or carnivorous gorillas. Their favored weapon is the poison tipped blowgun needle , which they use for hunting.
Ability Score Increase. Your Dexterity score increases by 1.

Hidden menace. When making a ranged attack while hiding you do not reveal your location. Enemies must make a Perception check against your Hiding check. Once per day you can cast a spell without the somatic component as if you had the Subtle Spell Metamagic option.
Tree Climber. You climbing speed on none-vertical surfaces (such as trees, rocks, etc.) is the same as your walking speed
