I have a cool idea for a homebrew gnoll that I am going to design, but am not sure about the backstory. The idea is to have a gnoll brute type thing, who is much less supernatural, but still incredibly dangerous. It would be so unstable that while out of combat, the other gnolls would keep it in chains. However, I have no idea how it comes to be, without bringing in the supernatural.
I was originally going to post this under homebrew, but it was less mechanical, so I put it here. If you want an idea of it's stats, it takes inspiration from the dire troll, in it's attack everything near me thing.
I had originally thought that they would be an elite, but I'm not sure. I also toyed with a gnoll going insane, but I wasn't sure that could work, and the idea of it being a ritual was too supernatural for me. We have enough supernatural gnolls for the moment.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Later on, I should be releasing this in the homebrew section, alongside some other gnolls, who you can actually role-play, rather than being random encounter brutes, as well as a gnoll race, and a conversion of the alchemical golem from the pathfinder 2e bestiary.
Thanks in advance.
