=== Combat ===
Yeenoghu is a ferocious melee combatant who fights with a reckless abandon that most demons attribute to his once being mortal, as true demons are aware of their weaknesses and far more self-preserving than he. Yeenoghu also adds his total Strength score (not his Strength modifier) to attack and damage rolls. His tremendous effectiveness in melee is enhanced both by his hyena-like traits (which allow him to attack more effectively as part of a group) and his demonic traits, the powers of which cause him to move swiftly across the battlefield. While his spell-like abilities may be less numerous or powerful than those of other demon lords, they serve their purpose in allowing him to utilize his melee abilities to the fullest extent possible.
Yeenoghu also represents a trait rarely found in the Abyss: teamwork. While he is a formidable foe alone, he functions much more effectively in a group.
Yeenoghu's primary base of devotees is amongst his native people; gnoll lore has immortalized Yeenoghu as one of its greatest figures, and the fact that his tale of triumph continues to this day spurs them to emulate his deeds and attempt time and again to rebuild the empire he created. Other would-be conquerors, particularly those well-versed in their historical studies, also pay respects to Yeenoghu for his exploits.
In the Abyss, Yeenoghu maintains good relations with the [[Molydeus (3.5e Monster)|molydei]], but has attracted the ire of [[Baphomet (3.5e Monster)|Baphomet]] due to what has been perceived as an attempt to steal followers. He also surrounds himself with fiendish gnolls and upon whom he commonly bestows his ravage, who serve as his new force in battle and frequent the vast expanse of his realm, which has become a hive of activity with the introduction of several gnoll armies into its borders, one of the key pieces in his bid to acquire more territory.
