Gnoll pantheon

Yeenoghu

The most worshipped gnoll 'god' is the demon lord Yeenoghu. Yeenoghu is not the creator of the gnolls, nor is it believed he is truly a god of gnolls in any formal fashion, instead 'hijaking' the race's worship when Gorelikk faltered.

Gorellik

Gorellik is the oldest known god of gnollkind, and his recorded history dates back to the Days of Thunder, when the Creator Race Empire's still ruled Faerun, and humans were barbaric, primitive more ape-like beings than they are today. He is not the creator of the gnolls however, and this is partially the reason why his worship faltered. (More on wikipedia.)

Deep gnoll gods

written by WereScrib

These are only really known, or found in gnoll tribes controlled by Deep gnolls, also known as the "Reavers" or the "Harlokh". (As detailed in the Candlekeep Compendium).

Favored Weapon: BUrden of Duty (Longsword)

Dogma: Be attentive, dillegent and thorough in the performance of your duties, whose who fail in a duty, especially if they gave it anything less than their utmost will suffer mightily for their indolence. All duties are valuable and shuld be mastered; when assigned to a task, devote yourself to learning its every aspect. No task should be underdaken without a thorough understanding of the intended goal, what its achievement entails and what difficulties might await you during it's execution: preperation and forethought are the differences between success and failure. Those above you are your masters and may do with you as they see fit; that is their right, and you must give them nothing but your unconditional obedience and loyalty. Your masters give you what is your due for your service and aptitude, no more, no less; they may grant you advancement if you prove worthy, but ambition, insubordination and insurrection will see you punished.

Note, like cornugon Jyalkaath gaining most of his divine power through Bane, the Erinyes demigoddess Valyethrae gains most of her divine power through Shar.
