Some Gnolls reach a certain level of intelligence which designates them as the leader of a pack. These Gnolls often realize that infiltrating an enemy camp and sabotaging it's defenses is a much better idea than charging in straightforwardly. Thus, stealthy Gnolls are appointed to climb over walls, head through secret tunnels, and generally wreak havoc before the main attack. These creatures are not smart enough to sabotage defenses, such as raising a portcullis or destroying a catapult, but they will attempt to draw the enemies' attention anywhere except where the real attack will take place.
