@JeremyECrawfordWould it be over balanced to allow deep gnome the use of svirf magic feat as part of the race itself instead of a feat? Sorry, would it be too powerful for the deep gnome to have the svirf magic feat by default?

@Tim_H_Hatcher The race isn't designed to work that way, but as DM, you're welcome to give it a try.
