Grung

Frog like people that used to inhabit Kuy’agni’toa in similar numbers to Tortles, they have been displaced by a population explosion amongst the Tortles. After their exodus from Kuy’agni’toa the Grung are gathered mostly in the northwest quarter of The Frontier of Derrleon.
 * 1) Grung share the Tortle beliefs in ancestor veneration and the great spirits that are their penultimate ancestors, riding their children and such.
 * 2) Grung that remain on the island protect small planar gates (The Gates) from interlopers.
 * 3) Grung tend toward ritualism and simplicity, but city grung are incredibly practical.
 * 4) Most Grung make a pilgrimage once in their life to see The Gates.
 * 5) While the Tortles are seen as more progressive and civilized, the Grung have a rich tribal culture. One of the main areas where they come into conflict with other races is the concept of death. To a Grung, the spirit has departed, the soul-spark scattered to form new seeds, and the body is merely matter that will eventually sustain the grasses.
 * 6) It is acceptable practice for Grung to be selected as grave-tenders. These tenders come in two varieties:
 * 7) Those Who Tend The Garden, clerics who perform funerary rites and inter the dead.
 * 8) Those Who Raise The Guardians, necromancers who are sanctioned to raise the dead when the tribe are threatened. Thus, even the forms left behind can continue their service to the tribe.
 * 9) The most highly venerated high priests and saints of the Grung are liches of incredible power.
