After an ancient law banned human fighters from the arenas, the Beastcraftersexploited a loophole and created numerous varieties of anthropomorphised animalhybrids. While many different species were exploited to this end, rats, dogs, andhyenas provided strong, reliable subjects and were amongst the most commonhybrids. After years of Beastcrafter tinkering and manipulation, robust strains thatdrew from these three species were perfected. These gnolls, as these strains came tobe collectively known, were bred in the thousands in the years before the cataclysm,and sold as slaves and gladiators to the arenas and as shock troops to the armies offoreign powers. When the great storm struck, several groups of the hardy gnollssurvived, trapped in isolated colonies deep beneath the city. Over the nextmillennium, they multiplied, forming numerous tribes and packs, warring with eachother in their underground warrens and hunting the great worms.Today, gnolls form what is easily the most numerous group of living creaturesinside the Frozen City. Most gnolls will belong to one of the many tribes, clans, orpacks that claims large areas of the underground as their territories. While gnolls onlyrarely come to the surface, their hunting parties are occasionally encountered byexplorers in the ruins.Gnolls possess a low-level human intelligence. They are capable of limited humanspeech and can produce simple tools and weapons, though they prefer to steal orloot rather than create. Gnoll warriors include all of the same types found in humansocieties, though those that rely on specialized weapons or heavy armour such asknights and marksmen are uncommon.
