Description
Gribbets are an amphibian species that greatly resemble oversized frogs. They often reside in fresh water areas, such as: lakes, marshes, rivers and ponds. They can vary greatly in appearance and size depending on their various subspecies.
Society
Gribbet society often enters a plateau near the tribal and feudal stages. They tend to excel in these smaller style societies and stagnate in larger societal structures. This is often linked to their connection to the water and the difficulty in setting up large societies based in fresh water ecosystems.
