Gnoll Archer 02 by Novaminis
Description
Before the first arrow flew, the party heard it — a low, wet cackle drifting from the treeline, followed by the crack of bone underfoot.

- ✔ Compatible with D&D, Pathfinder, and all tabletop RPGs

This is pose 02 of our Gnoll Archer range by Novaminis. Where the first pose readies for the shot, this variant captures the gnoll mid-stalk — hunched forward beneath a ragged hood, jaw agape with that characteristic hyena grin, one claw clutching a skull-adorned quiver of arrows while the other reaches out with predatory intent. The riveted plate shoulder guard, bandage-wrapped forearms, and barbed tail speak to a creature that has survived countless raids through sheer ferocity. Skull trophies hang at the belt. This gnoll has been busy.
Gnolls in D&D 5e are demonic in origin — spawned from hyenas that feasted on the kills of Yeenoghu, the Beast of Butchery. They don't merely fight; they revel in destruction, moving through settlements like a wildfire and leaving nothing of value behind. This sculpt captures that energy with every claw and exposed fang. Equally at home stalking a grassland ambush, guarding a warband camp, or terrorising a trade road, the Gnoll Archer 02 brings genuine menace to your encounter table — or your display shelf.
A worthwhile addition for adventurers who:
- Need varied gnoll units to populate a warband or raiding party
- Are running a wilderness, savanna, or desert-themed campaign
- Want a characterful enemy NPC that reads instantly at the table
- Enjoy painting expressive creature sculpts with rich surface detail
- Collect monster miniatures for display as well as gaming
Encounter Hook:
The merchant caravan never arrived. Riding out to investigate, the party finds the road strewn with splintered crates and gnawed axles — and then, from a dry ravine to the east, the sound of something laughing. A single hooded figure crouches on the ridge above, arrow nocked, watching to see if the newcomers are worth calling the pack for.
Details
Printed at 32mm scale. Available with or without a plain black base — the base ships unattached and can be glued on at your preference. Each miniature is printed to a high standard; supports are removed before dispatch, though minor marks may occasionally remain from the printing process and are easily tidied up ahead of priming.
