Toad Lore

Toads are divided into three castes; nobles, warriors and slaves
The following information about toads can be obtained with a successful Nature check.

DC 15: Toads live to make war. A typical tribe includes a mixture of sizes, with the mightiest holding the title of warchief. A toad has little tolerance for talk and resorts to conversation only if the advantage of doing so is apparent.
DC 20: Toads once had an empire which fell to internal strife and interference from otherworldly forces. Meetings between toads from different tribes turn violent if members aren't restrained.
DC 25: Toads developed mundane and magical methods for taming and breeding toads as guards, laborers, and soldiers and they all carry on this tradition.
DC 30: Larger toads serve as elite warriors, and smaller ones work as scouts, infiltrators and slaves. The disintegration of toad power led to widespread and diverse sorts of tribes.
