Gorger Mawpacks are strange gatherings of ogors afflicted with the Empty Belly curse, driven mad with hunger no matter how much they consume.

The largest of these emaciated monstrosities is the vicious Clawback, while the frenzied Cave Howler is cursed with a mystical roar.

Gnome teams play Blood Bowl on pitches deep within their mysterious forests, in clearings between the trees. These aren't just your regular run-of-the-mill forests, though – magic hangs in the air, and all manner of creatures, both fey and mundane, come out of hiding to watch their Gnome friends play Blood Bowl!

Gnomes are something of an enigma in the world of Blood Bowl, with many fans having dismissed their existence almost entirely.

The team comprises eight Gnome Linemen, two Woodland Foxes, two Gnome Illusionists, and two Gnome Beastmasters.
