Frogs and Toads#
One family of Wild Animals: 24 animals, levels 1 to 5. Reading the tables says what each column means.
Some are harmless and some are deadly to lick. The bright ones are the deadly ones.
| Animal | Level | Health | AC | Bite | Group | Tame | Worth | Lives in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Toucan Arrow Frogtiny · weakA small black frog with a bright yellow face, the toucan arrow frog lives among the giant conifers of the wet coastal forests. Like its cousins it carries poison in its skin and wears the colors to say so. It’s rarely seen, and worth more to an alchemist alive than dead. | 1 | 3 | 4 | 1d4 | 1 | DC 5 | 5 | · |
| Golden Toadtiny · weakBright orange and almost metallic in the sun, golden toads crowd the wet forests of Menusia and the fens of Tharsis and Amari after heavy rain. They’re harmless. Collectors pay more for a live one than anything that small deserves. | 1 | 4 | 2 | 1d4 | 1 | DC 4 | 35 |    |
| Yellow Delta Frogtiny · weakA yellow-green frog of the river deltas and estuaries of Menusia and Amari, with a call like someone plucking a loose string. It’s common and harmless. Fishermen hook them as bait for bigger things. | 1 | 4 | 4 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 5 | 5 |  |
| Darkwood Toadtiny · weakA small brown toad of the forest floor from Darkwood to the Forest of Frost, mottled like the dead leaves it sits in. It’s harmless. You’ll step on one before you see one. | 1 | 5 | 5 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 4 | 5 |     |
| Glass Frogtiny · weakIts belly skin is clear enough to watch the heart beat through. Glass frogs cling to leaves over streams in the wet forests of Tharsis and Menusia and are nearly invisible from above. They’re harmless, and only alchemists care about them. | 1 | 5 | 1 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 2 | 40 | |
| Pine Robber Frogtiny · weakA small frog of the pine forests of Tharsis, Esthar and New Saellem that lays its eggs on land rather than in water. It’s the color of bark and rarely seen. Its whistle carries on damp nights. | 1 | 5 | 2 | 1d4 | 1 | DC 4 | 5 | |
| Robber Frogtiny · weakRobber frogs are small brown frogs of the forests of Menusia and Amari that move into other frogs’ burrows and calling spots. They hide by day under bark and leaf litter. Harmless, and almost impossible to find on purpose. | 1 | 5 | 5 | 1d2 | 1-2 | DC 4 | 5 | |
| Water Frogtiny · weakWater frogs are plain green frogs of ponds, water meadows and the warm pools around hot springs. Wherever there’s still water there’s a water frog, making more noise than anything its size. Fishermen use them for bait. | 1 | 5 | 3 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 7 | 5 | |
| White-Grass Treefrogtiny · weakA pale treefrog that climbs high into the pines and redwoods of Esthar, Tharsis and New Saellem. Its call sounds like a dripping tap. Harmless, and almost never seen on the ground. | 1 | 5 | 2 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 4 | 20 | |

| Ash Toadtiny · weakA small grey toad that lives where nothing else will, in the warm cracks of the volcanic ground of Moria.

| Banana Frogtiny · weakA slim, pale-green frog that sleeps curled on broad leaves around the marshes of Tharsis and the swamps of Menusia. Quiet by day, loud all night, harmless always. | 2 | 6 | 6 | 1d4 | 1 | DC 5 | 10 | |

| Wrinkled Frogtiny · weakThe wrinkled frog is a small, lumpy frog of dry heath and scrub. It looks like a crumpled leaf and is about as interesting to anything hungry. It sits still and waits for rain. | 2 | 6 | 2 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 5 | 5 | |
| Shore Toadtiny · weakA squat gray toad that lives where fresh water meets the sea, along the beaches and deltas of Menusia, Amari and Moria. It puts up with salt better than most toads. Harmless and rarely noticed. | 2 | 7 | 4 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 5 | 5 | |

| Poison Arrow Frogtiny · weakTiny and painted in warning colors, this frog sweats a poison that Menusian hunters scrape onto their darts. It turns up in wet forests from Menusia to Tharsis. Don’t handle one barehanded, and don’t lick your fingers after. | 2 | 8 | 3 | 1d4 | 1-2 | DC 4 | 5 | |
| Strawberry Dart Frogtiny · weakA tiny red frog with blue legs, the strawberry dart frog lives in the wet forests and bogs of Menusia and Tharsis.

| Estuary Frogtiny · weakThe estuary frog lives where rivers meet the sea and in the swamp forests behind them, and it can stand water saltier than most frogs can. It’s small, brown and loud at night. Bait, mostly. | 3 | 9 | 3 | 1d2 | 1 | DC 4 | 5 | |
| Menusian Coast Frogtiny · weakA green and gold frog that breeds in the pools behind the beaches of Menusia and Amari. It calls loudest just before rain, and coastal fishermen trust it more than the sky. | 3 | 9 | 2 | 1d2 | 1-2 | DC 3 | 5 | |
| Menusian Flying Frogsmall · weakA green frog with huge webbed feet that it spreads like sails to glide from tree to tree in the Menusian forest. It can cover forty feet in one leap.
