Wizards of the Coast: gnolls are brutal and violent beasts, theyâre dumb as rocks, the only thing they love more than murdering unsuspecting adventurers is eating them afterwards
Me: okay but what if some of them were, you know, chill, like they were just dudes? Theyâre still people, surely they canât all be evil as a rule, I donât like the implications of that
Wizards of the Coast: no they LOVE murder and theyâre super evil. In fact, their god is really a demon, and all of them are also demon-possessed? They live in abandoned ruins and stuff because they canât build their own villages or create anything, all they know how to do is steal and destroy. Also donât feel bad about killing the baby ones when youâre clearing out a settlement, theyâd for sure grow up to be evil no matter what, itâs fine
Me: cool that sucks, anyway I made a gnoll, sheâs nice and her name is Sweet Pea
I love 1) having elaborate imaginary arguments, 2) creating characters out of pure spite for disappointing lore, and 3) hyenas
