Gnoll

Gnolls are a race of hyena like humanoids. Most live in the deserts of Gyhan however some tribes have migrated to other regions of Elrinia. Gnolls are usually of a chaotic alignment, but there have been exceptions.

Origin
Not much is known about the Gnoll races true origins. What is known is that they migrated over 800 years ago from the continent of Arkadia.

On Arkadia they believed to be feral nomads who killed and pillage without warning. Their neighbors, a race of Jackal like humanoids, believed the Gnolls to posses little to know intelligence and they pitied them. Over time these Jackal-folk assimilated most of the Gnoll tribes into their society. They were taught how to read, write, and function like the Jackal-folk, however they were treated like second class citizens or even pets.
