half-gnoll
gnolls inhabit this world perhaps more than others and so through time gnolls have bred with humans and produced a few offspring who have spread across the world over time. these half-gnolls are slightly dog-like in appearance perhaps having pointed features and large wet noses but hold themselves more upright due to their human heritage. Unlike their gnoll heritage a half-gnoll does tend towards chaos but can find moderation in their human half. Yeenoghu still calls to them as he does all gnolls driving them toward chaos in their dreams. half-gnolls sometimes lead gnoll tribes with their human wit and otherwise often live in the slums or other fringes of society as humans are wary to trust the half-dogs.
