Grung

Adult grungs usually stood at approximately 3 feet (0.91 meters). Males were generally smaller than females. They resembled small humanoids with strong toad or frog-like legs that ended in webbed feet. Their torsos and heads were less amphibian and more humanoid. They had muscular forelimbs and their hands had opposable thumbs. These creatures stood upright erect and moved about in quick, short hops. Unlike frogs and toads, however, grung were incapable of long leaps.

Grung society was a rigid caste system, and each grung's place was determined by its color:

• Green: Warriors, hunters, and general laborers.
• Blue: Artisans, domestic and childcare workers.Grung crafts were traded with other races, and could be found in the marketplaces of cities near their habitats.
• Purple: Supervisors of the green and blue grungs. They make sure that the lower castes were happy.
• Red: Scholars and magic users. Also known as grung wildlings, they were superior to purple, green and blue castes, and respected even by higher castes. Red grungs were known to fulfill the roles of tribal shamans and priests.
• Orange: Elite warriors, with authority over all lesser grungs. The orange grungs were charged with protecting the grungs' most important or sacred sites.
• Black:Skill Assassin with not major authority but can have other Grung help in their task before Assassin.They answers directly to the Gold Grung.
• Gold: Also elite warriors, with the highest leadership positions. Every tribe leader was a gold grung.

Grung were aggressive and territorial. They often attacked any intruders, be they adventurers or members of another tribe. Border wars were quite common among clashing grung tribes. A single tribe usually claimed area within one mile around the settlement. The territory was rigorously patrolled and, if an intruder was encountered, the grungs never engaged in negotiations. When they travelled or were otherwise away from home, they rested high in the trees by building nests—called tunulungas—which were fashioned from their own saliva and oils.Grung tribes also made extensive use of slavery, and were always looking for new creatures to enslave. They held their slaves in crude pits covered in wooden bars, and kept them at bay by poisoning their food in order to inflict lethargy on them. Over extended periods of time, the effects of such poisoning could only be removed by magic.
