Gnojnis are sometimes thought to be failed imps, hellish creatures thrown out of the inferno for being too small, too weak, too dull to survive in the flames of eternal damnation, but generally they aren't even given that much credit. They're small humanoids, four feet tall on average and under one hundred pounds, with flat faces, pointed elf-like ears, and wide mouths with small, almost dainty, sharp fangs. The oddly bright, glazed eyes of Gnojni range from bright red to emerald green to electric yellow, the latter being closest to matching their speech, which is usually high-pitched and fast, voices designed for squabbling and to ensure they are heard. Gnojni prefer to live in dark caves and other underground havens, generally collecting into tribes with specific pecking orders in which every member knows his or her place, similar to the mentality of a wolf pack. Its not however uncommon for a Gnojni to take up in a fancy castle or other living environment if given the chance, and will enjoy every second of being spoiled. Ascension within the pack is achieved through battle even by looks they constantly fight with one another to try to improve their rank. Tribes of Gnojni take slaves for food and labor whenever possible, and these are constantly kept under guard, if not shackled. Rescued prisoners consistently recite horrors of watching their fellow captives being beaten, raped and consumed, and some are themselves recovered with fewer limbs than they had had before being captured. Gnojni's are a race thrown from to the bottom of the social ladder that try hard to gain a place of respect with the rest of the world, even if it means betraying their own.
