Unfortunately the gnolls in Blackburrow don't drop leather, except for the commander which can drop raw hide sometimes.

You can however do the Cindl's Polar Bear Collection quest for some patchwork armor. It's not as good as leather or even raw-hide, but at least you won't look naked.

The number #1 priority is making sure you have enough money to afford your spells. They're expensive and a lot more important than gear.

But while we're on the topic of armor and tradeskills, it could be worth the effort of crafting your own set of banded armor. Banded is a great baseline set of armor and will last you awhile. It'll be a bit cheaper to buy a set off another player, or you can spend a bit more and craft it yourself and get the Blacksmithing skillups. Up to you how you want to go about it.

Gnoll fangs are really powerful, nothing else really beats them for early leveling so you should farm them for awhile. Eventually you'll have to move on to the Freeport region, but you could also extend Qeynos a bit by grouping at the bandits in West Karana if you can find people. The sashes they drop are also excellent exp + money.

You'll also probably want to pick up some Alligator's Tooth Earrings and Limestone Rings from the Qeynos Aqueducts.
