It says they are the cousins of gnolls, but I always keep wondering: In what way? Are they some sort of breed with some other race? Are they a complete other race?(which I doubt, since their name in the MM is "Gnoll, Flind") Are they just stronger? If anyone has any ideas or KNOWS about the origins of Flinds, and how much different(other than stats) they are from gnolls, I would greatly appreciate it.

They also are not so lacking on the brains department, and gnolls have a natural inclination to treat flinds as their betters.
