This is not the official gnoll race for D&D, for the official race, click here.
Gnolls are an opportunistic race of humanoids who prefer to scavenge rather than actively hunt, they prefer to wait for others to complete a task, and then sweep in to benefit from the others' labor. Being somewhat cowardly, they avoid entering combat unless they know they have some advantage over their foes. Gnolls are moderately built creatures standing about 5 or 6 feet tall and typically weighing 150 pounds. They have coarse fur and coloration similar to that of either striped or spotted hyenas, depending on the gnoll tribe. Gnolls wear whatever armor they scavenge, so they often have mismatched pieces of various armor. Gnolls also lightly adorn themselves with jewelry and the like. They wear small earrings to differentiate themselves from other gnolls, but they do not wear anything overly large, as such objects could be a liability in a battle. Gnolls reach adulthood around age 14 and generally live into their 60s.
