COMBAT

Giant frogs attack by leaping at their prey and attempting to grapple with their tongue (dealing automatic bite damage) or by bite their opponents.

   Adhesive Tongue (Ex): A giant frog can make a grapple attack that does not provoke an attack of opportunity with its tongue. If successful, an opponent is held and automatically takes bite damage each round. A giant frog can attempt to swallow a grappled opponent.

   A successful attack against the tongue (AC 16) releases the frog’s grip on its prey. If the tongue is successfully attacked, the frog will not attempt a grapple attack against that opponent for the remainder of the combat.

   Leap (Ex): A giant frog can leap up to 30 feet horizontally (10 feet vertically) and attack with its bite. Treat this as a charge attack (+2 bonus to attack, -2 penalty to AC). To leap, the giant frog must be at least 10 feet away from its foe.

   Swallow Whole (Ex): A giant frog can attempt to swallow a grabbed opponent of Small size or smaller by making a successful grapple check. Once inside, the opponent takes 1d4 points of acid damage per round from the frog’s stomach acids. A swallowed creature can climb out of the frog with a successful grapple check, returning to the frog’s mouth, where another successful grapple check is needed to get free. A swallowed creature can also cut its way out by using claws or a Small or Tiny slashing weapon to deal 4 points of damage to the frog’s stomach (AC 13). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must cut its own way out. The frog’s interior can hold two Small, four Tiny, eight Diminutive, or sixteen Fine opponents.
