Copy that. Figured Gnome Barbarian is funny cuz small barb, but it does have mechanical benefits! Having adv on mental saves vs spells is great for a Barb since I don't have great saves for those. And since I managed to get a 16 on one of my stats, I can have an optimal amount of strength despite being a gnome. Works out in the end. 

Anything I should know IC for my post? Like where is the party, how could I could get my character introduced to them, recent events he would know about?
