Gnolls possess the long developed snout and jaws of a hunting hound, acute ears keyed to the wind, as they stride about their lands. Otherwise human in seeming - if one discounts the fur and shaggy tail - gnolls know better than any the power of a pack, and the ways of removing foes who choose not to ally with their packs. Gnolls all learn the art of war from the time when they are barely old enough to crawl, and ingrained in every gnoll's soul is the importance of being strong, never showing weakness. Because of these traits, these beings are much feared for their unyielding tenacity in everything that they do.
