In the world of Mundus, there are various races known as the shortfolk by humans and other tall people (well, even by dwarves!). One of these are the Lurikeen: cousins of the common gnomes and the gnomes of Golemmar, but with fey ancestors. The wild Lurikeens living under the roots of the great Tree of Life in the Forest of Arba, coexist with dryads and Arverians. They are the eternal children of the woods, with pure spirits and adventurous souls. They have the ability to turn invisible at any moment, and for this reason, they are so rare to be seen and are considered non-existent by some races.

They can live for many years, and most of them resemble young kids to the eyes of humans. However, very few of them have been seen with long beards, such as Baggo, the wanderer wizard seen in the trailer with the owl companion. This Lurikeen is probably 600 years or more, since Lurikeen normally appear young even with a few hundred years. I decided to make this character not to resemble a regular gnome with a pointed hat and beard but instead as an homage to two characters that I really love from my childhood: since the Lurikeen are inspired by wild hobbits, and I love Gandalf the Grey, Baggo has been inspired both by Bilbo and Gandalf, unifying the features of a hobbit and a long-bearded wizard with a pointy hat.
