Special
Hop
A hop counts as a charge, with an additional +1 'to hit' bonus. A batrachian making a hop attack with a spear or harpoon will inflict double damage. If not armed with a long weapon like a spear or harpoon, a batrachian will always lose initiative due to its clumsy movements on land.
Special
Camouflage
Batrachians are well-camouflaged and can remain motionless for long periods. They are also cold-blooded and hence hard to see with infravision. As a result they surprise opponents 50% of the time, or 80% of the time if hopping.
Less advanced frog-man tribes without weapons or armour
Anurans represent the less advanced frog-man tribes, and typically do not possess weapons or armour. Anurans can have shamans (maximum of 3rd level) or witch doctors (maximum of 3rd/2nd level). They otherwise count as batrachians.
There is a 25% chance that batrachians will have 2d4 giant frogs (75%) or poisonous giant frogs (25%) in their lair. Batrachians with poisonous giant frogs available may (50% chance) have anointed their spears or harpoons with poison.
Rumours persist of batrachian ghouls, which may be under the shaman or witch doctor's command.
Treasure: 2d6 gp per individual, plus if encountered in their lair, a 20% chance of 1d3 pieces of jewellery and a 10% chance of 1d3 magic items.
