  • Each gnoll or hyena that Yeenoghu
    can see can use its


reaction to move up to its
speed.


  • Until the next initiative count 20, all gnolls and hye-


nas within the lair are enraged, causing them to have

advantage on melee w
eapon attack rolls and causing

attack rolls to have
advantage against them.

REGIONAL
EFFECTS

The region containing Yeenoghu's lair is
warped by his

magic, creating one or more of the following
effects:


  • Within 1 mile of the lair, large iron spikes grow
    out of


the ground and stone surfaces. Yeenoghu impales
the

bodies of the
slain on these s pikes.


  • Predatory
    b easts within 6 miles of the lair become un-


us ually savage, killing far more than what
they need

for food. Carcasses of prey are left
to rot in an unnatu-

ral display of wasteful slaughter.


  • If
    a humanoid spends at least 1 hour within 1 mile


of the lair, that creature mus t s ucceed on a DC 17

Wisdom saving throw or descend into a madness

determined by the Madness
of Yeenoghu table. A

creature that succeeds
on this saving throw can't be

affected by this region
al effect again for 24 hours.
