Utility -- Magic Gnome Collections

Utility -- Magic Gnome Collections

OK it is not so much a collection in the sense that you collect them, but rather a collection of Magic Gnomes that is spread across the base game and expansions. 

Gnomes change poses, use objects, clean objects, and just plain moves around your lot when you aren't watching them! The hours of trickery are between 9 PM to 4 AM; the chance of your Gnome executing one of these options runs between 10% and 80% -- and Gnomes that reside on your lot for a length of time may show a preference for specific objects, especially expensive ones (valued at over $1500).

Your Gnome may seem to go dormant for a while - they don't move or do something every night, and as the chances of them doing something are random, you may have to wait a while for your Gnome to move.   They have a range of positions that you can find them in, including standing, proud, handstand,  dancing (2 poses), scared, pointing, examining, lying Down, sitting, and sleeping.

While some of these are benign, others can range from spooky to outright hostile and dangerous!  You have been warned!
