Biology
A Dire Toad is a creature produced seemingly entirely by accident – a colony of Hoppers received a high concentration of exposure to a sudden mythium vent emergence. As a result, while similar in behavior to its cousin the Hopper, a Dire Toad’s physiology is drastically different. The bright blue shine of its skin is broken up by bright red, swollen veins running along its body. The veins in its eyes have also increased in density and taken on the same bright red color.

The mythium exposure endowed the newly created Dire Toads with the ability to produce a deadly toxin, which they transmit by spitting poisonous bile at their enemies, either while hunting or in defense.
