Toads

Toad Lore

Toads are divided into three castes; nobles, warriors and slaves

The following information about toads can be obtained with a successful Nature check.

DC 15: Toads live to make war. A typical tribe includes a mixture of sizes, with the mightiest holding the title of warchief. Larger toads serve as elite warriors and smaller ones work as scouts, infiltrators and slaves.

DC 20: A toad has little tolerance for talk and resorts to conversation only if the advantage of doing so is apparent. Toads once had an empire which fell to internal strife and interference from slaadi. Meetings between toads from different tribes turn violent if members aren't restrained. The disintegration of toad power led to widespread and diverse sorts of tribes.

DC 25: Toads developed mundane and magical methods for taming and breeding dire toads as guards, mounts and beasts of war.

DC 30: Slave caste toads that reach the age of 25 acquire a voracious appetite and if able to sate this hunger they go into a regenerative state and begin to grow in size. But they also become violent dumb asses and will eat just about anything, including other toads. These Elder Toads that live long enough go through the regenerative phase again when they reach 100, if allowed to gorge themselves for a month they grow even larger.
