Personally though, the Gnomes are kind of like the Illuminati (or what people say the Illuminati is :P). They seem rather godlike, and might be in control of more of the PvZ world than we think. That being said.... they definitely didn't create the world. After all, why would you make the Trials to research teamwork (I think?) if you created the world? The gnomes are also very protective of their secrets, as indicated by their hostility whenever you enter Infinity- you have really done them no harm. And finally, like the Illuminati, the gnomes are still relatively shrouded in mystery.

We know they function on a monarchy (hence the King and the MoM- his advisors possibly), and that they have inter dimensional abilities, including the manipulation of time and space. They are able to pull sections of the world out seemingly without disrupting the original structures (Trials have decorative backgrounds like the PvZ1 houses in Zomburbia map, creating tombstones/gardens). They also have enough power to SEAL AWAY CHARACTERS Galacta Knight style. As in, there is no way to track where these characters are, have been, or where they were last seen. I mean yes, they do have insane armies, but let's be honest, in desperate times I'm pretty sure Plants and Zombies would be willing to band together. I'm specifically talking about the Party variants who would supposedly have been sucked into Infinity at the same time, or would have at least found each other. Then we can take into consideration the final Trial rewards- two chests, one Plant, one Zombie, locked up with five Rainbow Locks and already confirmed to contain two new character classes.

Rant over. Off Topic: Character classes confirmed!?!

On Topic: I just think they are powerful beings that could forge their own universe with their power, whether technologica or magical or both. The Party characters accidentally encountered and activated a rift of sorts that got them captured in their world and the Gnomes took it as an offensive. They feel secure and supperior, so they now welcome us in the Trials(that I have yet to play)

Yes, apparently there are two sources:

1. Dataminers

2. Somehow people have already unlocked it, one of their icons was spotted in one of the shooting range's scoreboards.

I didn't say what they were as courtesy to those who don't want to know yet.
