The mechagnomes are one of the playable Alliance allied races in World of Warcraft, introduced in Battle for Azeroth. A pioneer group of gnomes that settled Mechagon Island in search of titan technology, they began to enhance their mortal bodies with steel and robotics. They have since reconnected with their cousins from Gnomeregan, and alongside their prince, are led by King Gelbin Mekkatorque.
Mechagnomes start out underground in their wondrous city of Mechagon. They then journey to their faction's embassy (much like all other allied races). Similarly to their fleshy brothers and sisters, mechagnomes ride Mechanostrider mounts, but of a slightly different variety. Also, like regular gnomes, they speak Gnomish as their main language, but also know the Common tongue.
Background
- Main article: Gnome#Mechagon mechagnome
Official website
Long ago, a faction of zealous gnomes set out on a quest to improve their bodies and minds. Settling on the isolated isle of Mechagon, they experimented with ancient technology to reverse the Curse of Flesh and become living machines. After facing the perils of full mechanization, they found the ideal balance between flesh and steel. Now reunited with their gnomish cousins, the mechagnomes bring both tenacity and ingenuity to the Alliance.[1]
Race preview
Though they once sought to mechanize themselves completely, the mechagnomes now seek a balance between flesh and steel. Emerging from years of isolation on Mechagon, they bring both ingenuity and aptitude to the Alliance.
They left Gnomeregan to construct a metal metropolis, Mechagon. However, their once wise and ambitious ruler King Mechagon now ruthlessly rules over them with an iron fist.
Work together with the Rustbolt Resistance to overthrow their tyrant so these mechanical mavericks will join the Alliance.[2]
