While gnolls are very like-minded, and savages in battle its is only through the personality and leadership of the pack chieftain do they have their own in their style of warfare and fighting. What is equal among these packs, is there dedication, devotion, singing and worship to the Feral Beast. These are three major characters from Gnoll faction, currently.

Name: Ripper Gnarltooth Title: Terror of Evanes. Faction: Scraptooth Pack. Weapons: Scrap Claws. Weapon Name: Manschredder. Class: Melee Specialist. Territory: Evanes Badlands. Appearance: Light furred gnoll with dark spot around the eyes, crimson-yellow eyes with some fang made nose-piercing, has a golden and red tipped mane he style in a wild and spiky mohawk, had his lower fangs replaced with red sharp scrap, bigger, longer and sharper than his old fangs, he wear a red painted scrap armor with white and black accents, equip a thick red lower jaw-guard, a crossed layered heavy chestplate with white gnoll head with big black teeth pack-mark painted croodly on the center, a pair of heavy long arm-guards and fingerless black gloves, a large, thick, leather belt that he wraps around his waist a couple of times, black torn shorts, and a pair of very heavy, layered shin-armor, he is barefooted. Background: Ripper Gnarltooth the Chieftain of the Scraptooth Pack. A infamous gnoll that terrorize the western region of Evanes, known as the Badlands, his rise of power and infamy started there as a runt of his original pack. He was simple runt, apart of a Bladetooths, gnolls that have taken a liking to steal and loot all sort of metal from crushed enemies. Ripper had always liked those metals, scrap and loot, and possessed a special talent with scrapping together scrap, making stuff from the loot he manage to scavage and horde for himself. Cause of his unique style and skills, the runt of the pack started to get noticed by the rest of his gnoll packmates. When he managed to bang and scrap together some armor and claws that he made for himself, the once weak runt became a hunter, clawing down anything in his way in gorery fashion, even taking a habit of bitting and gnawing a opponent apart. Being young, cunning, and ruthless Ripper was starting to gain respect and following amongst his pack, which threaten the position of the old Chieftain of the Bladetooth Pack. But Ripper didn't originally care about the spot of alpha, or actually getting respect, all he wanted was to fight and tear everything apart. Such is the nature of this savage gnoll runt, as long as the Fanged God, Yathyuah, looked down at him favorly Ripper was content making stuff and killing everything else. Until on a raid in a dwarven mine, as Ripper was having the time of his life, tearing and ripping apart the damned runts of the Stunted God, the chief called for him, and made him join his rumble that he and the Sharpfangs were about to get into, he was excited and pumped, he could literally hear the drums of Yathyuah, beating in amazing chaos! But as the small group of them, headed deeper in the mines, away from the rest of the pack and once alone he was backstabbed. By the chieftain and his grunts, beating him down and cutting him over and over again, then to add insult the old gnoll chieftain ripped out his infamous lower fangs, leaving Ripper for dead in the dark...but thus wasn't the end for the gnoll, as a warg came and found the bleeding Ripper and took him away, before any dwarf or creature could find him. It said by the warsingers, that it was Yathyuah's doing that saved Ripper that day, for the Fanged God didn't want the chaos, rampage and mayhem that Ripper brought to the Grindcore to end there. So he sent a warg to save him, and once thought dead, he could heal and grow in power, for he'll get his payback and make all those Bladetooths pay for the crude he'd suffered, as a runt. Alone he followed the Fanged God's Grindcore leading him deeper into Badlands, finding small packs and banished gnolls in the more dangerous and volatile reaches on the Badlands. Under the guidance of Yathyuah, Ripper continue and thrived in these part of the Bandlands, uniting these gnolls, "teaching" them the way to make better, tougher, and more chaotic stuff with scrap and loot that they took from those they fought and crushed in this area, he even regained his lost fangs with sharp pieces of scrap-metal, which he used in bloody effectioncy, tearing and bitting many in such a gorery manner that he earned a second name, which is a honor given to the most brutal and infamous gnolls. He is Ripper Gnarltooth, the chieftain of the Scraptooth Pack, once he gained enough power, and favor from the Fanged God, transforming from a meer runt into a great beast, Ripper made a grand offering of chaotic music, and bountiful meat to Yathyuah, as that was day of his revenge. Leading the Scraptooths across the Evanes Badlands, fighting and killing everything in their path to the Bladetooths territory. This march for payback, resulted in Ripper and pack destroying countless settlements of humans and dwarves that tried to settle there, hence Ripper gaining the moniker of Terror of Evanes, and eventually Ripper and his Scraptooths manage to find and fight against the Bladetooth Pack, a brutal fight that made the Fanged God, happy and excited as the two packs tore each other apart, and the stronger of the two will rise in the favor of Yathyuah, and claim the Evanes Badlands for the gnoll. Days of nonstop fighting, Ripper finally caught his old, traitorous chieftain and challenged him, as Ripper claws slashed and tore into the old cowardly gnoll, Ripper was clearly the strongest of the two, and once the old chieftain was forced to his knees, Ripper bit and tore into the old gnoll's throat, winning the fight. Seeing their chieftain dead, and Ripper standing strong they submitted to him, and he became the sole chieftain of the largest pack of the area, since then Ripper Gnarltooth has terrorized the area and places around the Badlands, cementing his power, and glory to the chaotic Grindcore Metal.

Background: A nasty female gnoll. A fanatical devotee and warsinger of Yathyuah, her name Ikka Bloodclaw. In the gnoll race is not uncommon for females to be strongest of a pack, even a chieftain, but Ikka is a special case. Born in the hot jungles of Rahtt, mostly gnolls reside and rule these jungles, taking and enslaving the former human tribes in the area, and "learning" to stack and make stone temples, which became the sacred grounds of the packs that dominate Rahtt Jungle. Ikka was born into the Crimson Claw Pack, unlike the females that were mostly hunters, and fighters, she was most interested in playing the loud and chaotic Metal of the gnolls, Grindcore, all day and night. Earning the notice of the warsingers of her pack, that took her in apart of their ranks and her skills as Grindcore warsinger greatly improved, in such a great speed that her elder warsingers believed that Ikka was blessed by the Fanged God of Grindcore Metal, Ikka herself thought that Grindcore Metal and Yathyuah are everything. She gained her echo-guitar when she was still a pup, and Ikka was shredding her sacred instrument, and blasting her adored Metal, gaining a following among the younger gnolls. Once she gathered enough followers, she started going out into the jungles to cause mayhem and chaos in the name of Feral Beast. Ikka, and her party tore things in the Rahtt Jungle, beating down monsters, beasts, other gnolls, and even found some human expeditionaries. After slaughtering those humans, she found some rags, clothes, and other loot that she took for herself, that successful raid, Ikka gained more respect and freedom in the pack. Ikka, started to lead larger raids, and even encountered more humans, that started arriving to their jungle, through the shore via ships, with a wicket smile, Ikka started to assault all expeditionaries vessels that came to Rahtt, gaining much more loot and finding a big, bad bastard sword. Greedily after that big sword, she took it and through some banging and bolting she made her new weapon and instrument, a cross between a echo-guitar and a Bastardsword, now she can shred and slash anything and anyone in her way, soo much rampage caused by this weapon that it gained the name of Yathyuah's Tooth. As time passed, and Ikka grew in infamy and favor not just by her pack, but other gnoll packs in Rahtt, that she was considered the spawn of the Fanged God himself, as she caused untold chaos and Grindcore Metal with exciting thrill. Eventually the now known as Ikka Bloodclaw, became the new chieftain of the Crimson Claw, and through her Metal, brutality, chaos, and violence made all pack submit to her, and basically the Rahtt Jungle, belong to her and her pack. Ikka, started to expand the wild rampage beyond the jungle, leading a massive pack in multiple raids and fights, making her a great threat to many races near her jungle, causing a lot of wars, just as she wants endless chaos and brutality.

Name: Kouga Howler Title: Laughing Terror of Valnahien. Faction: Howling Moon Pack. Weapon: Giant Flail. Weapon Name: Goremauler. Class: Melee Specialist. Territory: Howling Northern Caverns. Appearance: By far the biggest gnoll in his kind, a dark furred and spotted gnoll with a brown maw with big razor sharp fangs, yellow canine eyes, his dark brown mane is styled in a spiky mohawk, has several battle-scars especially around his mussle, wears a bright yellow and white painted armor, a huge shoulder pauldron on his left shoulder with multiple leather straps to hold it and some pieces of warg skull to make it look like a massive maw bolted on, a slightly smaller right shoulder pauldron with a moon in a crooked form painted on it, a heavy yellow and white stained chestplate with some fangs connected to the torn chainmail underneath, one heavy and studded elbow guard equippedon his left elbow, a pair of heavy yellow braces on his arms, heavy and very large thigh-armor with a single crooked moon painted on them, and a pair "customed" greaves that don't cover his feet. Background: A very, very famous or infamous gnoll in Ragnarock. Making his name in the land of Valnahien, terrorizing it for years, and even waging many wars against Van Den Hellion the Ironcrown King. Known for his brutality, merciless savagery, unbelievable strength and size. His name is Kouga Howler, a giant among his race, none known how he became soo huge, many believed that his God, Yathyuah, must have greatly favored Kouga and blessed him with such a body and strength. He is the undisputed chieftain of the Howling Moon Pack, claiming leadership of said pack, by literally crushing the previous chieftain in a gorery paste with his giant flail. The Howling Moons control the far north, almost outside the borders of Valnahien, numbering thousands, and many gnolls travel across the continent to join the pack of Kouga. Aside from his size and strength, Kouga is also a capable planner...by gnoll standards, using tactics like using ambushes, attacking in multiple points, and after fighting against Hellion for soo long, he learn to use range weapons such as slings. Thus making him a very unique and dangerous gnoll, obsessed with fighting against Hellion, and eventually killing him, for he was the only one that not only beat him but hurt him, a scar that he loves was Hellion that gave it to him, and nearly costing him his right eye, Kouga even swore that the moment that he kills Hellion, he'll give him a bigger and better scar across the face. Kouga has another unique trait, he has fits of uncontrollable laughter, during fights and battle that earned him the moniker of the Laughing Terror, even when he suffers a small wound or is forced to retreat from Valnahien by Hellion, he'll still laugh like a demented being. In truth laughing is something that his pack desire, cause is Kouga isn't laughing than he is furious and enraged, and most likely is going to take out his anger on one or many unfortunate gnolls. Regardless, Kouga is by far the most powerful and dangerous gnolls in the north, and many believe that should he ever defeat the Ironcrown King and tramples Valnahien, there'll be almost nothing that would stop him, from causing unfathomable chaos across the lands.
