Baliwog (Shivering Isles)

The Baliwog is a predatorial amphibious creature. They dwell in the lakes, rivers, and bogs of the Shivering Isles. Although the Baliwog, or Wog, as some of the locals call it, of rather small size, walks on all fours, it shouldn't be considered primitive or docile, thus underestimated. In conversations with NPCs in-game, there are speculations about the Baliwog being the infant state of a Grummite.

Strategy of Attack
A fully grown adult Baliwog can deliver a wounding slash attack with its claws or a potentially fatal bite from its razor- sharp teeth. The lethality of this beast comes not from the actual damage it can deliver, but more from the crippling diseases the player character can contract from it. Also worthy of note, is the Baliwog's ability to regenerate health when immersed in water. It is best for one to avoid these creatures, as they are always found in overwhelming numbers, although some of them may carry flawless pearls in their corpses. It is not known why they would swallow them - perhaps because they are attracted to their brightness -, or what use they may serve to the creatures.
