Hyenas are a type of beast and non-playable race who can be found travelling with gnolls and the Cult of the Absolute.

About[edit | edit source]

Hyenas are pack hunters and scavengers who often serve as hunting companions or pets to gnolls. The corpsed wombs of hyenas regularly serve as the birthing place for new gnolls.

They can be found near a wrecked caravan along the The Risen Road during Act One, and with members of the Cult of the Absolute in the Shadow-Cursed Lands during Act Two.

A Bloated Hyena, stuffed with the spoils of fresh slaughter, will violently erupt and give birth to a Newborn Gnoll if not killed first.
