| Yeenoghu |
| Demon Prince of Gnolls, The Destroyer, Beast of Butchery, Ruler of Ruin |
Yeenoghu is the bestial embodiment of savage butchery. He is a vile god of savage lust and wanton destruction, representing the dark side of nature. The Beast of Butchery commands his followers to show no mercy over their opponents.
Yeenoghu welcomes to his worship any who exult in death and slaughter. His followers sometimes paint his eye on their weapons and armor so that their patron can see the atrocities they commit in his name.
Yeenoghu combines the worst features of a gnoll and demon in one immense form. His body is gaunt and lanky, and patches of yellow fur stained with brown spots cover him. Leprous gray skin and suppurating wounds mar his body, revealing the corruption of his flesh and spirit. His head is a large, anthropomorphic hyena’s, with glowing red eyes and a toothy maw from which spills strings of drool.
Yeenoghu is a lesser deity, a risen demon lord who seeks power through slaughter.
His personal weapon is his dreaded triple flail, created from the bones of a slain god. As such, the favored weapon of followers of Yeenoghu's is the flail.
In 3039 AA the Sword Rust Tribe of the Winding Wood enacted a terrible ritual and summoned an aspect of Yeenoghu to the material plane from The Hells. Now he walks the world hungry for slaughter and destruction. |
