'''Gnolls''' are non-playable [[humanoid]] creatures in [[Baldur's Gate 3]]. They closely resemble [[hyena]]s and are consumed with a primal bloodlust and hunger. Often gnolls worship the demon lord Yeenoghu.

==About gnolls==
== About gnolls ==
Gnolls are a race of carnivorous humanoids, tall and lean with a craving for the hunt. They have a strong affinity for family and blood ties, though this comradery is not always extended to separate packs. Gnolls also have a fondness for hyenas, seeing them as brethren and keeping them as pets or hunting companions. Gnolls can be born from [[Bloated Hyena|bloated hyenas]] that are fat off the spoils of a massacre.

===Flinds===
=== Flinds ===
Flinds are a stronger and more vicious cousin to the gnoll who have become part [[fiend]]. They are often found commanding war bands of gnolls, or otherwise as solitary hunters. A gnoll who vanquishes a flind is said to transform into a flind themselves; however, Baldur's Gate 3 has no such mechanic.

== Notes ==
== Gallery ==
* Prior to Patch 6, Gnolls were categorized as [[Monstrosity|Monstrosities]] rather than [[Humanoid|Humanoids]]. This change makes [[Baldur's Gate 3]] more similar to 5th Edition D&D (which also categorizes Gnolls as humanoids).
