Another Gnoll fan! You, like me, are a rare breed.

I know it's not quite what you're looking for, but my last Gnoll character was a Flind Gnoll (MM3) Ftr2/Brb1/Rgr3. Flind Gnolls get a very sweet racial weapon that gets free disarms on critical threats, so optimizing that was actually very sweet. I got him up to a 50% chance to trigger a free disarm on every full attack routine. Also, with Speed 50, an inventory list a mile long (Str 26 is a huge carrying capacity), and a whole bunch of Ranger scrolls refluffed as animal bones, he was almost more of a utility character than a combat brute.

Here's the list of refluffed scrolls, for your convenience:

Show
Rat Bone of Animal Messenger
Monkey Bone of Branch to Branch (1h, +10climb, can brachiate for +10 spd)
Raccoon Bone of Detect Snares and Pits (10 min)
Wolf Bone of Embrace the Wild (10 min)
Badger Bone of Endure Elements (1 day)
Hawk Bone of Hawkeye (10 min, +50% range, +5 spot)
Lark Bone of Lay of the Land (50 miles)
Rabbit Bone of Jump (1 min, +10 jump)
Deer Bone of Longstrider (1 hour, +10 speed)


I figured he'd crush the bone either in his hand or his mouth to activate them. ^^
