Leaper Clan

The Leaper Clan is a group of frogs living in a pond of CHI in the land below Chima, and a member of the Pond Clans. They are one of the primary clans in the fan season Beyond Chima: Tales from the Pond.

Physiology
The Leaper Clan is based on a variety of different types of frogs, so its members can be quite colorful, but shades of green or brown are most common. They can be identified by bright yellow or orange eyes, prehensile tongues, and long limbs. They are often very quick and agile and can jump great distances, as well as having a great sense of balance. As amphibians they can breathe both air and water. They eat insects, including the spiky, poisonous, or otherwise dangerous varieties, which the other Pond Clans are grateful for.

Culture
The Leaper Clan is the most unorganized of the Pond Clans, and its members mainly coexist while pursuing their own goals, but they somehow get along fine for the most part. They are against fighting, and prefer to use indirect methods such as traps, but when forced to they use guerrilla-style tactics.

The leader of the Leaper Clan is known as the Grand Leaper, but they don't rule alone. They are advised by the Elder Leapers, the oldest and most experienced frogs in the clan, that act as a council. The Elders also are the ones that choose a successor once the Grand Leaper passes.

Technology
Frog weapons, vehicles, and buildings are often colored in bright greens and yellows, and a lilypad motif is common. They have the standard blue CHI-lights.

Frogs are most skilled with blowguns, daggers, and other weapons that reward speed over strength. They know a lot about different plants and sometimes will coat their weapons with poisonous berries.

The most common frog vehicle is a large but surprisingly lightweight and maneuverable amphibious mech. It's shaped like a bipedal frog, and has spring-loaded feet and a tongue that can be used as a grappling hook.
