}}Hyena is an enemy from the [[Beasts]] faction.

== Loot ==
<tabber>
|-|Regular origins=

* A [[Raging Hyena Fur]] (30% chance), [[Acidic Saliva]] (20% chance) or [[Provisions|Strange Meat]] (16.5% chance).

|-|Beast Slayers=

</tabber>
== Behavior ==
Hyena is the [[Direwolf]]'s southern counterpart. Hyenas are less tough, have more AP but less initiative, and their bites cause [[Bleeding (Status Effect)|bleeding]]. Unlike Direwolves, sometimes they can wait.

They can not have these [[injuries]]:

* [[Fractured Hand]]
* [[Crushed Finger]]
* [[Fractured Elbow]]
* [[Smashed Hand]]
* [[Broken Arm]]
* [[Cut Arm Sinew]]
* [[Cut Arm]]
* [[Split Hand]]
* [[Pierced Hand]]
* [[Pierced Arm Muscles]]
* [[Burnt Hands]]

== Tips ==

* Dangerous in the early game, when you don't have good skills and [[armor]].
* [[Swords|Riposte]] and [[Shieldwall (20 fatigue)|Shieldwall]] allow you to strike three times (and more if surrounded) while defending.
* Be careful when attacking a pack of them, they can be much stronger [[Frenzied Hyena|Frenzied]] ones.
* Their [[morale]] easily breaks.
* [[Bleeding (Status Effect)|Bleeding]] can be removed with [[Bandages]], but [[Nimble]] does not reduce its damage.
