Editing Refnara (section)

==Canon Information==
Refnara is the gnollish goddess of fear, and has managed to survive the usurpation of her race by [[Yeenoghu]] thanks to her powers over darkness; sheer superstitious dread of her has kept her alive, albeit in a diminished form. Gnolls fear the full moon, regarding its presence as a bad omen against leaving their dens, and offer sacrifices to Refnara to "eat" the moon on the nights of a full moon; the dwindling of the full moon into the new moon is believed by the race to be the symbol of her power - its restoration a reminder for them to stay faithful to her, and a test of their courage. Strangely for a goddess of hyena-people, Refnara appears in the form of a snake; "To Bite The Moon" revolves around a spirit [[naga]] disguising itself as her avatar to extort tribute from a pack of gnolls.
