Please read op BEFORE applying DSM logic to arguements.
P.S The correct answer is ALWAYS Wizard.
I know he wants to be a gnome. Putting periods in your sentences and turning on caps lock doesn't make you look smart.

My point is if the loss in starting STR was such a huge problem, people would be advising against picking gnome. Just because OP wants to be a gnome, it doesn't mean people cannot try to dissuade OP from being a gnome. Rogues have illusion masks as well, so race matters less in terms of fashion.

You cannot simultaneously say fashion > stats while also saying if he doesn't put 25 points into STR, he's going to have major problems playing his class. He is already losing 43+ STR for his fashion choice.

The gear list I provided in the link above would put you at 160 strength as a gnome, with no buffs or points put into STR. With Maniacal Strength + FoS you will be at 295 Strength. It is trivial to cap STR in Velious era with EC gear and buffs. Even as a gnome, STA is the better starting stat choice.
