The Howling Slayers

The Howling Slayers terrorise the Arux Valley. They are led by a powerful Flind named Andak. They led the assault on Senlin's home and killed his wife and child. The Howling Slayers have wiped out many hamlets and villages in the valley and killed many more. Alteryon has flown out to kill many gnolls several times, but Andak has always slipped away under Yeenoghu's shadows.
