At first glance, frogfaces are just | At first glance, frogfaces are just red-colored frogs with blue swirls on most of their bodies and two horns poking up from behind their heads. However, once attacked, they will turn around and reveal the yellow-eyed, blue-tongued face on their backs. If attacked again, they will turn back around to being primarily frogs. As they first appear, frogfaces pose no true threat. They can only execute a weak attack or runaway while acting as frogs. It is when the back-situated face is shown that the monster becomes dangerous: its basic attack becomes much stronger and it gains the ability to cast spells and use [[breath attack]]s. The frogface and its amphibious brethren are part of the [[bug family]] in their debut title, oddly enough, but are members of the [[demon family]] in the ''Monsters'' games due to their faces. | ||
