"Lampriles" are a species I came up with waaaaaaay back ages ago, when I was still using Angelpoo as my site host (I've changed twice since. Erf).

Basically, they're sapient (if rather stupid), froggish creatures. Used to live in a sort of symbiosis with the sligs, back in their ancestral homes, but after the Purges and the few remaining Slig tribes grew withdrawn and xenophobic, the Lampriles struck out on their own, and made a happy enough living in tribes in the high branches of forest trees, using the pools in the upper canopy to rear their young. They're hermaphroditic, although tend to behave in a "feminine" or "masculine" manner, and like snails producing children requires two individuals.

I wrote more but I want to polish it up. So yay.


The Gollum-esque one clambering up onto that platformy-thing seems to be in some sort of dispute with the chief, on the right, and the "female's" nose is getting in the way of "his" fingers. Grr.
