Homebrew Anuran Species Details

Diverse Peoples

Frogfolk are found in as many diverse forms as the amphibians they grew from. Two individual frogfolk from differing ecosystems will be wildly different in appearance and physicality. The appearance and customs of a colony of frogfolk form to match their environment: members of a colony found deep in the murk and mire of a swamp will often have smooth, moist, dark green skin and large bulbous yellow eyes on top of their head, while frogfolk found in a desert have incredibly dry and bumpy skin, with small black eyes.

This wide variance in appearance combined with the lack of knowledge and awareness of the frogfolk has led to a lot of misunderstanding of the differences and similarities between subspecies of frogfolk. As a result, many times a newly discovered colony of frogfolk is labeled a new race or an entirely different people, or similarly two very unique colonies are ignorantly determined to be of the same peoples.
