Abyssal Murderer (4e Paragon Path)

Abyssal Murderer

“	Do not speak to me of control, of discipline, regulation. I am the spawn of the most bloodthirsty creature in all of creation, I was born to end lives and I intend to do that	”
—Thryx, Gnoll Ranger, Fury of the Abyss

Prerequisite: Gnoll race

Gnolls are the children of hyenas and the beast of butchery, Yeenoghu, and are known to be just as savage as their patron Deity. You are a knoll, someone who feels rage as a living, tangible force waiting to be released on everything within your sight. Though you struggle to maintain control, the beast inside wants release, and in combat, you do just that. You are an Abyssal Murderer, a paragon of savagery and killing. Enemies quiver in fear when they meet your gaze and stand immobile as you move in for the kill. You are an embodiment of murder, and may the Raven Queen have mercy on your next victim.
