Rockleith Frog (rɒk'liːθ frɒɡ)
Croak — CROOOOAAAKK
The Rockleith Frog is a uniquely large amphibian that can be found far across the realm, though particularly in the jungles of Kyradon and the Tokevis Region north of Ossalimar. They're commonly domesticated as pets or their form can be taken for a familiar, primarily by Witches.
Description
There are two common variants of the Rockleith Frog, each with a particular link to their region. However, it is not uncommon for the Rockleith Frog to be found with a drastic variation of different colours that are specifically linked to the region which they inhabit, this is believed to be a survival strategy that allows them to survive throughout the region. Regardless of the variations most Rockleith Frogs usually approach between 4.5 to 6 feet tall and often weigh around 300 to 400 pounds.
Each frog has powerful rear legs that allow them to jump high in the air and also give them a strong kick should they be picked up by an individual. Their legs are typically ended with webbed feet, however when aggrivated its not uncommon for these webbed feet to protrude small claws that allow for the Rockleith Frog to strike at those around them. Additionally, when aggrivated, the frog will turn a vibrant colour and have large spines that appear along their back in another vibrant colour which makes the frog look much bigger than it already is and attempt to ward off any aggressors.
Abilities
The Rockleith Frogs have a number of different abilities that allow them to protect themselves from any larger creatures or humanoids that wish to hunt them. This section contains information about the general abilities of a Rockleith Frog. There are unique abilities of different variants of Rockleith frogs, details in the Variants section below.
Amphibious
The Rockleith Frog is able to breathe both air and water. This allows it to be versatile both on land and in water and reside in one of the multiple different biomes across the regions in which they reside.Lashing Tongue
All Rockleith Frogs seem to be able to whip and attack with their tongue as a normal person would use a whip. The powerful tongues have been known to cause severe injuries to a person.Venomous Strikes
When lashing out, a Rockleith Frog secretes venom from their claws and can attempt to inject it into the veins of their target. If entering the bloodstream of a creature, the venom slowly works to enforce paralysis onto that creature.Toxin Gas
When threatened, the Rockleith Frog can release a cloud of toxin filled gas around them. Anyone who inhales the gas hallucinate vividly and will become mentally scarred by the visions they see until it clears their system after about a minute.Forceful Leap
The Rockleith Frog can use its powerful legs to make a large leap to a distance of around 60 feet. Delivering a powerful smash on the area around them. It almost seems to act like a stomp if a creature is trying to escape from its clutches.| Rockleith Frog |

Variants
Kyradon Rockleith Frog
Some scholars have considered the Kyradon Rockleith Frog to be a remnant of the previous era, a creature who thrived in the lush jungles that once filled the entire continent. However, during the Fall to the Void many of the creatures who remained on the western side of Kyradon were said to have been destroyed in the strange blast of magic that filled the land. At least a small contingent of Rockleith Frogs were kept in the northern cities, from this small population and the influence of those with magic, the Kyradon Rockleith Frogs have managed to flourish and become one of the primary inhabitants of the Dumal Jungles. Once the population started growing it seemed to keep growing further and faster by the years. In their calm state the Kyradon Rockleith Frog has a dark green complexion with some red and lime green accents that mostly hide them in the dense jungle, allowing them to also appear more threatening with the red around their eyes making them seem more threatening. The easiest way to identify a Kyradon Rockleith Frog, other than their size, is the obvious veins along their lower jaw, they are often a shade of light blue, the color of their venoms and toxins that course through their body. When aggressive however, the creature will produce a set of frills all the way down its back that are a bright purple, they easily add an extra half a foot, if not more, to the height of the frog. Additionally, they protrude almost metallic claws from all of their fingers and toes that seem to drip with a light blue liquid.Abilities
Whiplash
When a Kyradon Rockleith Frog wishes to, they can add barbed spikes onto their tongue. When they do so they take a small amount of damage but then can pierce these barbs into an individual and stun them for a short time with a slow acting poison.Poison Dart
When threatened from a distance, the Kyradon Rockleith Frog can use the barbs that its tongue grows to launch poison filled dart at those who are being aggressive towards it. These darts can easily be launched 60 feet.

Large froggies with claws! :O I love the different regional variants and the fact they have different abilities. I can picture them being quite a fun encounter for a party of roleplayers. :)
