Gnoll race

From DDO wiki

A typical gnoll

Overview[edit]

Gnolls are hyena-headed, evil humanoids of the Gnoll type that wander in loose tribes.

Description[edit]

Most gnolls have dirty yellow or reddish-brown fur. A gnoll is a nocturnal carnivore, preferring intelligent creatures for food because they scream more. A gnoll is about 7½ feet tall and weighs 300 pounds. Gnolls speak Gnoll.

Combat[edit]

Gnolls like to attack when they have the advantage of numbers, using horde tactics and their physical strength to overwhelm and knock down their opponents. They show little discipline when fighting unless they have a strong leader; at such times, they can maintain ranks and fight as a unit.

Most gnoll leaders possess a special ability called Heroic Howl, which is essentially an AoE version of Greater Heroism that only affects gnolls.
