# [Flind](Rules\Source\bestiary\fiend/flind-mpmm.md) *Source: Mordenkainen Presents: Monsters of the Multiverse p. 127* When the demon lord Yeenoghu wants to create a particularly fearsome war band leader, he transforms an exceptionally strong and vicious gnoll into a demonic warrior known as a flind. A war band of demon-worshiping gnolls typically contains only one flind, and that creature sets the war band's path. Because of its special connection to Yeenoghu, a flind uses demonic insight to guide the gnolls toward weak prey ripe for slaughter. Unlike other leaders who might skulk behind their minions, a flind leads the charge in battle. Its flail causes wracking pain, paralysis, and disorientation in those it strikes. ```statblock "name": "Flind (MPMM)" "size": "Medium" "type": "fiend" "subtype": "gnoll" "alignment": "Typically Chaotic Evil" "ac": !!int "16" "ac_class": "[breastplate](/Rules/Source/items/breastplate-xphb.md)" "hp": !!int "127" "hit_dice": "15d8 + 60" "modifier": !!int "2" "stats": - !!int "20" - !!int "14" - !!int "19" - !!int "11" - !!int "13" - !!int "12" "speed": "30 ft."
