Country Gnoll

Ah, the Country Gnoll. This guy is all Mab's fault. I don't know where the idea for a hillbilly gnoll came from for her, but it's a fine, fine creation. Also truly fucked up. He's a weird, fan-favorite character despite not showing up very often, and became popular enough that I included a version of Gnolls (as Knolls, country and otherwise) in my RPG book, There's a Game in this Book.

In my head, the Country Gnolls are wolf-people by way of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That's how I've always written them. It seems very appropriate.

 
    

When evil spreads across the land, and darkness rises and the monsters roam. When the creatures of the night make beautiful music, and the things that go bump in the night go bump with greater enthusiasm. When the world is in peril and is in need of a hero...

These guys are, sadly, the best the world can hope for. These are the adventures of the heroes of CVRPG. They mean well, they try hard, and occasionally they do the impossible...

They actually do something heroic.
