Command the power of the pack with the Blackpaw Pack Gnoll Mage, a Large-scale miniature featuring a formidable hyena-man arcane caster. Dressed in ornate knotwork robes and brandishing a gnarled staff and ancient tome, this figure perfectly captures the blend of savage nature and high-level spellcasting. Whether acting as a tribal shaman or a sinister dungeon boss, its imposing 43mm height ensures it dominates the tabletop.
A gnoll sage or shaman pauses to consult a magical tome while steadying themselves with a gnarled staff.
Elite adversary, mid-campaign mini-boss, or a powerful shaman-leader for a beast-folk warband.
