Well, my secret is out...
The repost of my old Smurf profile has revealed my obsession with
the 'Little people' to the world.

But I shall prevail!

Car Key Gnomes, a tribute to Graham Larson...
This was inspired by a Larson cartoon of a darkened room, with
two small men with pointy hats taking a set of keys from a
jacket that was on the back of a chair, and dropping them down
the back of the sofa.
The caption read 'Car Key Gnomes'

So...
If any PC is getting on your Nerves, have a Gnome (stats and
powers as a 'spirit of man') use 'Alienation' on there
credstick, Car keys, skillsofts, fetishes... anything small that
can easily get misslaid. It takes Int vs 2xSpirits force to find
the item, rolling every 10 minutes.
=)

And if they ever look down the back of the sofa, let them find
LOTS of small useless items they'd forgotten about. (including
some honey roast peanuts and a sweet covered in fluff)
