 The gnoll is a creature that appears in various types of fantasy media, and is generally portrayed as a human-hyena hybrid or a form of humanoid hyena. The term originates from 1912 short story collection ''[[wikipedia:The Book of Wonder|The Book of Wonder]]'' by [[wikipedia:Lord Dunsany|Lord Dunsany]], with one short story titled "How Nuth Would Have Practised His Art upon the Gnoles".
-The gnoll of ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' is introduced in [https://archive.org/details/monsters_and_treasures/page/7/mode/2up the first boxed set] of the game, and gnolls are described in ''Book 2: Monsters and Treasure'' as a "cross between [[Gnome]]s and [[Troll]]s (...perhaps, Lord Sunsany did not really make it all that clear)". These early gnolls were stated to be similar to hobgoblins with +2 morale, while a gnoll king and his bodyguard fought similar to trolls without regenerative power. The 1st Monster Manual for ''Advanced Dungeons & Dragons'' and all subsequent material describe gnolls as aggressive desert-dwelling nomads that resemble humanoid hyenas, and actively raid and plunder other settlements; it also introduces [[Yeenoghu]], the demon god of gnolls who many of them serve and worship.

These early gnolls were stated to be similar to hobgoblins with +2 morale, while a gnoll king and his bodyguard fought similar to trolls without regenerative power. This may serve as the basis for gnolls being part of the gnome monster class in SLASH'EM and other derived variants.
