Homebrew Frong Species Details

Frongs are extremely sturdy with more than enough charm to compensate for their frogish looks, but are often a little dimwitted. Making their home in extreme heat temperatures, Frongs hail from secluded islands with active volcanoes. After being befriended by mainland civilization, Frongs began seeking homes in other parts of the world. Finding themselves most comfortable in humid climates, and some often making homes in or by the rare desert oasis, if they were lucky enough to stumble upon one not yet claimed. It is often unusual to see Frongs in colder climates, though if you were to find one you may not realize it was a Frong, due to the heavy cold weather gear they're likely to be covered in.Though not likely to leave their natural habitat, Frongs may venture northward if they have a particular task or goal that would send them that direction, as they are quite determined little creatures.

No matter their chosen home, all Frongs feel a natural call back to the extreme head conditions of their original island homelands. Often when an elderly Frong near's their time,  they will try to venture forth to one of the islands of their ancestry to pass on to the next realm.
