Product Description: From the creative genius of Gary Gyax comes More Beasts of Legend. This new monstrous supplement, designed for the Lejendary Adventure Role Playing Game, contains over 80 monsters and with dozens of sub-species described and detailed. You ll find classic beasts such as the chimera or stranger creatures, such as the abomination hound, direct from Gygax s own wild imaginings. Each monster is treated in tremendous depth. Descriptions include relevant abilities and appearance as well as detailed information describing how each monster reacts in the attack and on the defense, their habitat and when necessary how they affect their habitats. These are monsters as only Gary Gygax can create. Pitted against the ferocious Bog Hopper your characters will find themselves the stuff of legendary adventures or the gristle on the plates of legendary beasts! More Beasts of Legend offers the enterprising LM a wealth of adventuring challenges. Included in More Beasts of Legend are relevant quick-reference charts to make accessing statistical information easy and fast. More Beasts of Legend is graced by a spectacular cover by Sarah Walker and with interior art by Bryan Swartz. Bog Hopper (also Bog Shark, Acid Tad, Flying Frog, Pond Lurker, etc.) Appearing: 2-8 H 12 P 25 except with tongue/75 to strike with tongue S 15 attacking-moving in water/3 flying-attacking. The bog hopper inhabits bog lands, marshes, and swamps. It is a relative of the Fire Toad (q.v.). When not swimming in larger bodies of open water seeking prey, they lurk in the tree tops hunting small game or looking for large corpses to scavenge. When swimming in their large fin often protrudes from the water's surface thus marking their presence. Because bog hoppers are much faster in the water, this is their preferred hunting place, even though when submerged their tongue can not be used to attack prey. If prey can't be attacked in or from the water the bog hopper will swim at full speed towards it. At the moment when the creature is within about 10 feet distance, they inflate with hydrogen (as explained below) and fly at the prey with the momentum from their rush. (This is their typical attack method people in rafts or boats are near.) Over time, the acidic nature of bog hoppers will pollute the water of their habitat to the point that most life forms therein will die. This then forces the Bog Hoppers to fly out in search of food, eventually to seek a new habitat. After they leave or die the old habitat will, in time, restore itself, return to normal. Then it is likely that new Bog Hoppers will migrate to it, multiply, and the cycle will begin again A bog hopper looks like a huge frog that is still part tadpole. A typical specimen is four feet long, a foot wide and as thick. They have a frog-like head and forelimbs, a tadpole-like tail. The tail has a highly exaggerated fin. The bog hopper has a mouthful of razor sharp teeth of piranha-like sort, a three-foot long tongue with sticky saliva, and sharp clawed forefeet. Add to that the capacity to fly, and this creature is fearsome enough. The bog hopper takes to the air by the following means: It has a specialized stomach and two specialized glands that allow it to mix calcium and acid to create hydrogen gas. The hydrogen fills the stomach ballooning the bog hopper to al
