'''Gnome''' (ノーム ''Nōmu'') is the [[Mana Spirit]] of Earth. He appears as a humanoid creature with a large beard, resembling real-life garden gnomes. His powers are of an earthly persuasion, with such attacks as gem missiles, land mines, rock slides, earthquakes, and weapon enchantments that can petrify opponents. Gnome's powers also extend to temporarily raising defense or lowering speed. His [[Speed Up]] spell in ''[[Secret of Mana]]'' was given to [[Jinn]] (Sylphid) in the sequel, who also received a [[Defense Down]] spell, creating a "true" opposition for both modifiers

Gnome often lives in places below the ground and is associated with dwarves. Despite looking wise and experienced, his looks tend to deceive his traits. He is jolly and occasionally fools around.

In [[Hero (Sword of Mana)|Hero]]'s storyline, Gnome is found in [[Gaia Cave]] and is the third spirit to join him. In [[Heroine (Sword of Mana)|Heroine]]'s storyline, he is found in the [[Airship]] after defeating the [[Guardian]] and is the fourth spirit to join her.

Gnome is found in the [[Underground Palace]]. When he meets the party, he refuses to let them pass into the sanctuary. [[Popoi]] attacks Gnome in protest until the [[Gigas Boss Line#Fire Gigas|Fire Gigas]] intervenes. Once the Fire Gigas is defeated, Gnome thanks the party for saving him and bestows his magic. His spells include [[Stone Saber]], [[Speed Up]], and [[Defender]] for [[Primm]], and [[Gem Missile]], [[Slow Down]], and [[Earth Slide]] for Popoi.

Gnome is the patron spirit of the Dwarves and is found in the [[Dwarf Tunnels]]. He is the second Mana Spirit to join the heroes. As the heroes follow [[Watts]] through the tunnels in hopes of getting some nitromyte, they come to a cavern where they are attacked by the [[Jewel Eater]]. After defeating the monster, Gnome appears and thanks the heroes for freeing him. He then joins the heroes on their quest. Much like the dwarves, Gnome uses heavy Southern American English in his localized dialogue.
