Llamhigyn Y Dwr

Pronounced "Thlamheegin er door"  This creature is also known as "The Water Leaper.  The Water Leaper is a creature mentioned in the tales of Welsh fishermen.  These creatures are said to dwellin fresh water, anywhere from rivers, ponds, and streams to swamps and moorlands.

This creature is said to break fishing lines and devour sheep that fell into rivers.  The Water Leaper has a habit of shrieking frightfully to startle and unnerve fishermen & shepherds so they would fall into the water and share the fate of the sheep.

Water Leapers are said to resemble a large toad or bullfrog with wings like a bat instead of legs.  They have sharp teeth and a long tail.

These Minor Unseelie are found in the moorland of the Thildolemian Forest.  Though the Wood Hob Ravenwolf of Ulfheim has stated that "There are none of those foul things in Ulfheim", it is believed that these creatures dwell in the Realm of the Myste.  The Bards of the Fearn Caers are awaiting further information.

Beware the croaking on the Moors & may you never have the pleasure of hearing their song.
