D. Nate the Gnome is Norm's older, larger brother. And if you haven't guessed by looking at the picture, Nate is completely opposite of Norm in many ways. He is much more reclusive and hates having his picture taken (probably why he hid behind Norms hat). Nate also hates traveling and, come to think of it, has never left the family grounds. Well except for that time when Nate and Norm were kids and went searching for snails down by the river, but thats a long story.

E. Alfred the Gnome is another cousin of Norm's. If you take another look at the picture you might even figure out how he got the name Alfred. If you haven't guessed, I tell you, see he has a striking resemblance to another famous Alfred. Look again, still stumped. Ok, then this other famous person has his own popular magazine with millions of subscribers and fans both by youth and adult. Still no luck? Ok now your making me MAD!!! and if thats not a big enough clue your out of luck. Anyways, Alfred is alot like his famous counterpart. He is prone to doing some crazy stuff, like the time he thought it would be fun to paint all the mushrooms blue. Hazah, that sure wigged otu several of the other gnomes.

F. Gus the Gnome is a distant uncle of Norm's. Gus as you might have guess is a bit different than most other Gnomes. Probably why Norm really likes him. Gus's background is rather complicated, but for information sake we'll condense it a bit. Gus is a product of the 60's and has never really shedded alot of the hippy life style he adopted. A lot of the other gnomes aren't particuarly appreciative of Gus's lifestyle and radical views. But Norm looks at it like this, every family has its horse of a different color. Gus definately moves to the beat of a different drum. Gus does have a lot of positive traits though. He's a fantastic story teller and is loved by all the younger gnomes, and his sense of humor is unequaled.

G. George the Gnome, brother of Geoffrey and Gerome as mentioned before is a cousin of Norm's. George, like his other brothers is a skilled and hard worker. Diligent to the end. His specialty is mining, quarying, and sculpting. You'll often hear him tinkering away with his hammer and chisel as he helps a fellow gnome excavate rock out his dwelling. Or mining some rare materials than can be traded by family for other goods. And he loves working with his hammer and chisel so much his favorite hobby/pastime is doing sculptures or bust of other family gnomes. In fact a lot of the yard gnomes you find at local landscaping stores were originally sculpted by George.

H. Geoffrey the Gnome, brother of Gerome an George, again Norm's cousins. Geoffrey skill is gardening and landscaping. He's so skilled with a shovel in fact that most of the other gnomes in his area would never consider doing any project without him. He can create a garden in a matter of minutes, where it would take most gnomes hours to accomplish. And along with his brother George can excavate an area for a basement, root cellar, or dig and assemble a well in just a few days. Personality wise Geoffrey is a pretty serious fellow, rarely laughs outloud and is prone to kill a party mood in seconds. Now don't misjudge him, because on the other hand due to his serious nature is also the first gnome the others go to for advise or suggestions as they value his cool headedness and judgement.

I. Norbert the Gnome, also know as Pappy or Grandpa, is Norm's grandfather. As you can see Pappy as he likes to be called is quite old, well evident by how his beard has greyed. But you don't have to remind him of it. He's well aware of his age and despite his age is still quite active in the community. Pappy is quite proud of Norm and his adventures into the outside world away from the home gnome town. Pappy is happy spending most of his day just sitting and talking about the old days with his fellow gnomes.
