Homebrew Half Gnoll Species Details

Society

Half-gnolls are almost never accepted by either gnolls or other intelligent races, so they live with each other in small groups of about 5 to 15 half-gnolls.
Secrecy is very important in half-gnoll groups, and they try to hide from all other intelligent creatures, only fighting when they have no other choice. Only the bravest of half-gnolls leave their groups to become adventurers, and such half-gnolls always try to hide their identity as much as possible, like using some sort of magic or hiding their faces. Sadly, a lot of half-gnoll adventurers are killed by ignorant town guards.
There are a few relatively large half-gnoll societies of about 50-100 half-gnolls in Toril, all of them situated on the Sword Coast. one of them is situated in the High Forest, another one is situated in Neverwinter wood, and the location of the rest of them is unknown. The only place where half-gnolls aren't killed on sight is Silverymoon, where half-gnolls have gained a little bit of respect because of the good deeds of the half-gnoll wizard Ivor, who defeated a powerful beholder. Half-gnolls despise Yeenoghu and sometimes will perform rituals that are supposed to weaken Yeenoghu (but the rituals don't actually work). On very rare occasions, a half-gnoll adventurer will join a group of other outcast adventurers, which is usually a half-gnoll's first true interaction with other intelligent non-half-gnoll creatures. Half-gnolls sometimes worship Ilmater, but they mostly aren't familiar with any other gods
