Gnoll History.

well i cant find any gnoll lore so i made my own, but can anyone find any clashes with wc3 lore and this?
-----------------------------
The Gnoll revolution.
-------------------------
Gnolls, savage and dangerously jelous and hated race amoung the forests knew of shamanism and blade and blood, but a dark magic was corrupting their souls and took their eyes towards eachother into hate.
------------------------
While until a group of trolls in which the gnolls had jelousy towards moved in with the horde. The gnolls took dire jelousy and hate at these trolls as the trolls and humans wanting pelts and fur for their factions, hunted the gnolls due to the fact they saw them as mindless savage and dark beasts.

The wisest of the gnolls, known as Shar'curr, a lonley white Gnoll shaman who came from far beyond the forests wandered within a nomadic gnoll camp. The gnolls taking savage caution and very little hospitality mauled the shaman leaving him bloody and bone broken, the shaman bleeding badly staggered to the Overseer and told him of the power and nobility for all gnolls and the future they could gain if they rised up against their true enemies and united into one tribe to avoid the mindless black magics in which he repelled.

The badly scarred black Overseer Fur'carr took little interest and savagly ended the life of the shaman, and having do so to become cursed, a dark magic took home to hes soul and tormented and gained strength at the death pain of hes kin.

The Overseer left in such pain and insanity took to the forests leaving hes tribe behind, only knowing that he'd only gain pain with hes fellow kin. After 3 days the gnoll lived on rations of various animals and only soon to be driven mad when he saw the carcasses and blood of hes own tribe spilt in hes very eyes by the RotPaw tribe of gnolls, these savage grey gnoll raised every tent alit and spared non but the most savage of gnolls in which they caged and tortured for their pleasure and platoon gain.

Fur'carr full of pain and torment felt a massive dark shadow over and upon him, hes rippling arms bursted enormous size, each one of hes fangs split into two and he lepted towards the RotPaw and savaged them leaving them alive to only see the blood dripping down from Fur'carrs fangs and bloodlusted eyes.

The Rotpaw quickly retreated on what was left and Furr'carr collapsed upon the puddle of blood from own kin. Dreams of pain and suffering, the loss of true sanity dwelled upon the face and eyes of Fur'carr until a lonly Orgemagi staggered upon hes twisted and bloodied body. The ogre strangly was of a docile type and lifted the fading life and body of Furr'car to a lonly tribe of ogres and their alter.

The ogre layed Furr'carr upon the shrine and that was hes last breath of life he had left, the cold stone swepted he's soul into dreams of faith, life, honour and nobility. The Emerald dream he had entered and their he met Ysera, the mighty dragon of the forest. She gave Furr'carr a single kiss and Furr'carrs lifeless twisted body regained hes true noble gnoll form and hes eyes became alit with life, hes black fur turned to as white as snow.

The ogres watched and praised the gnoll and eventually took care until hes wounds healed. Furr'carr having gained a strong relationship with the ogres took heed of their needs and wants and eventaully he was taught the noble ways of the factions and battle life.

Fur'Carr later hearing the defeat of the horde and return of the trolls to the forests gave him much suprise and a chance to take justice was much now better suited than none.

Furr'Carr took heed with hes ogre friends and started a revoloution for hes kin, he gathered the lost gnolls of hes tribe and eventually befriended each gnoll tribe teaching them the true path of the gnolls. Their new enemy was now to take revenge upon the humans, trolls and all who would oppose the new gnolls, this was the Gnoll Revoloution.
----------------------------
The gnolls---
Many years ago the gnolls and trolls lived in peace and shared harmonic magics of shamanism. The gnolls were able to roam the lands of the forest as Hyena spirits and the trolls as ravens,snakes,spiders and even tigers.
But the trolls went to voodooism and cursed magics of deciet and the gnolls lost their powers of alteration and sense of self content and started agressive arguments with the trolls and their own kin.
The trolls cursed the gnolls with mangey fur,dangerous fleas and ticks which slowly lowered their numbers and sent them mad.
The gnolls savaged eachother and the trolls losing a sense of balance within their mind. The gnolls broke appart and later on the trolls became dire enemies to the gnolls and later on joined the horde for protection and use of the hordes power.
The gnolls sent mad by the epidemic of ticks and fleas and dark fel magics from the invason of the orcs made them sadistic and gave them pleasure of mauling wildlife for no use. They fought eachother and made their kinds skulls tropheys in which they wore.
But the hope of Furr'Ca and hes new found powers by Ysera gave the gnolls a sense of truth and the power to control their anger and jelousy towards eachother.
Furr'Ca---------

Age:19(cursed)45(when of the GR)
Son of the first corrupted gnoll "Bone'maw" of the tribe known as BloodPaw.
Master of Claw blade and shamanistic magics.
Able to Transform into a massive Hyena.
Capable of fast speeds.
Skills:
1.Blade Fury: Sweep into a dangerous fury attacking random enemies
(like OmniSlash the famous dota spell but weaker)
2.Bark of the BattleFront: Call upon the dead souls of fallen gnoll warriors to allow them to fight for you for a short time.
3.Aura of the Emerald: creates an aura which slowly heals the mana and hp of nearby allies.
5.MarkofthePaw:Allows your gnoll to transfrom into a massive and speedy hyena for limited time.
-----------------------------------
Shar'curr----------
Age: 92(age of death)
Last of the familiy tree of the "true gnolls(white,pure)"
Able to repell dark magics and protect massive amount of allies in one blast.
Shar'curr was entrusted by Ysera to find the son of the corrupted gnoll "Bone'maw" and teach and tell him the ways in which would steer hes kin from madness and fel magics.
---------------------------------
Ogremagi(Shar'garoth) and hes ogre tribe-----------
Age:35(when of the GR)
Shar'garoth only being very young at the age of the orges first steps to Azeroth took great honour in the unopening eyes of Ysera and was a friend of Shar'curr and most trusted of all ogres in azeroth. Hes father was captured and bloodlusted by the orcs and having died in their useless war for power, Shar'gatoth wanting to take justice for hes fathers torment and pain, he swore that he would crush a mighty blow to the fel Orcs and their allies.
Tribe:
These pure white Orges who were uncorrupted and brought from the portals at which the same gateway of the orcs fled and broke from the call of the orcs need for selfish blood spill, found a simple and pure life worshipping Ysera and the forest for them to regain pure solice and meditation.
----------------------------------
The Trolls--------
Many hundred years ago before the fel magics arrived the gnolls were a gentle race much like the taurens and lived in harmony with the trolls.
But eventually the gnolls became twisted and the trolls selfish and later on an event tore there treaties to several peices.
A massive portion of forest trolls joined the horde, even the famous and iconic Zul'jin in which the gnolls had much hate for.
The Trolls used the power of the horde to steal the gnolls skins and weapons to use for the horde.
After the orcs defeat the trolls retreated to the forests only finding tiny portions of their camps still standing. The gnolls slew only the male trolls by the order of Furr'carr leaving the women and trollings to wander the forests to later give the returning trolls the bad news of the gnolls uprising.
The trolls having grown angry of the gnolls actions and the killing of mighty hunters and veterans took the trolls to fight tiny raids and wars within the forests on nearby gnolls camps.

you know, that's a very good example of the gnolls possible history and the only other good example of gnoll history is the one i found in the dwarf campaign's own site which means we need more gnoll fans!
#3
So, wulf, im assuming you like gnolls?\
As far as i know, there arnt any lore clashes there, it actually sounds like a very reasonable storyline.

PS: Are you making a gnoll campaign?
#4
planning to, or just make a gnoll race pack for people.
#5
I like it, being a big Gnoll Fan :) and shows a very good example of the Gnolls Possible History (like penguinsmasher said) i like alot :D
Anyway, hope you do create a Gnoll Campaign, looking foward to it. :)
#6
Yeah! The gnolls will dominate Azeroth!
