Gnolls were changed by the aberrant energies of the Twisted Lands, however, they retained their sentience and will, while gaining many features that allowed them to help in the Crusades. After the 16th Age, many Gnolls traveled to the Wild-Plains to hone their new powers, and now they’ve dispersed throughout Drakomere.
