with one of the most powerful of these 'Slaan mage priests' being a desicated husk of a mummy gifted with telekenesis able to float about commanding his underlings after death.

These Slaan remain an active part of the Warhammer settings, despite the release of their Lizardmen armybook predating Everquest, all the way back to 1997 (and they preceded this date in earlier frog-warrior configurations too)!
Oooh good to know, thank you [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Had to look it up but Grungs are basically Frogloks in DnD, 2nd edition, so as early as 1988? According to the internet. And they've since made an unofficial return in the more/most recent editions as well.

Another thread discusses the Warhammer version and what may have inspired their inclusion.

IRL there's also the Loveland Frogman, an Ohio legend, dating back to the 1950s. In most depictions, he wears a loin cloth and carries a wand. Maybe one of the devs grew up around there.

I wanna be a geonid.

It'd be SUPER DANK if eating gems you looted somehow boosted you or that you could use gems instead of mana etc. I know it'd break with rich folks, but used as a"new player experience" I think it could be a ton (or two) of fun.

Lots of peeps chatting about gendered types, but rocks aint gendered in P99 so it'd be a cool unisex option too, not like a missed gender model that some of the other races have.

The spotted leaper appears a bizarre cross between a wolf and a frog. Perhaps six feet from snout to rump, covered with slick, hairless skin that is a dark green color with occasional pink splotches, it lacks all trace of fur but has a set of fangs worthy of any wolf that ever strode the land. Extra long front legs tipped with raking claws give it the bounding gait that has earned it its name.
