A unique new creature has been spotted in the shallows of Silveil's lake. Froggugs (frog slugs) have a toad-like green, rubbery exterior covering a squishy yellow underside that feels and looks a bit like flan. Their eyes are on mobile stalks and can be a bit unnerving at first glance.

Froggugs seem to be prolific and have great regenerative capabilities, though predated on by a vast majority of both lake and forest denizens. Those elnin brave enough to try using one in their cuisine might be a bit disappointed to discover the green flesh completely inedible (bitter and tough), but the soft yellow underside much like fresh sea urchin.

They seem to live mostly on free-floating algae, and the nostril-like openings on the front of their body are actually their mouths, one side brings in the algae while the other side filters out water. When threatened, the openings are used to blow bubbles to warn others in their colony. They do not have teeth that can be felt but it seems they must have some sort of structure that allows the water to be filtered from their food.
