Lore:
He opened his eyes, feeling the sun beat down on his head, unbearably hot. A din of noises rose around him - talking and voices, ebbing and flowing in conversation. When he finally raised his head, his gaze settled on the three frogs in front of him. They looked at him expectantly, as if they were waiting for him to do something. When he looked back down, he noticed the egg in his hands. It was large and bulbous, a film covering the frog egg. It was then that he realized he was hungry, and the expectant look in the other frogs' eyes conveyed their own hunger. With a deep breath, he hoisted the egg over his head and made eye contact with the frogs again before smashing the egg open on the ground. There were cheers, and he quickly leaned down to grab a handful of egg to shove as much as he could in his mouth. The other frogs nodded their approval before also coming forward to partake of the egg, eyeing this new frog that has joined them. (June 11, 2022, the froggening)

He was trying to figure out his name, the other frogs throwing out suggestions when one stood out to him. “Maybe we should call you River,” they said. He chuckled, retorting, “River? I’m too small to be a River, I am more like a Creek.” The others nodded their agreement, murmuring. “Creek,” he repeated to himself, liking the way the name sounded.

It feels like so much has happened, sometimes Creek travels with other frogs but sometimes he is alone. It is during one of these alone times that he stumbles across a spiny flower mantis. It was big and green with dark and bright swirls on its wings (Pseudocreobotra wahlbergi). When he walked up his attention was so drawn to the pretty bug he didn’t notice the other pretty and much more tricky creature in the trees. The fae watched as Creek circled the bug, figuring out at which angle was best to eat the mantis from and just as he was about to nom down on it, the fae did some magick that caused the mantis to grow. Creek was incensed! How could his meal suddenly get bigger?! He was mid-bite and the bug that should of fit perfectly in his mouth was so long he couldn’t close his mouth around it. The bug wriggled and writhed as Creek tried to close his mouth. Wrapping his tongue around the bugs middle, he tried to fold it in half so he could close his mouth and swallow. This seemed to be working but now the fae was not happy, this frog was working around its trick! As Creek started to swallow, the fae blew powder at him that he breathed in. He paused, the inhale suddenly causing a tickling in his nostrils. He blinked long and slow when suddenly.. ACHOO! POP! Creek sneezed and there was a popping noise, and an even more foreign sensation resonating from Creek’s back. Turning his head to look over his shoulder, Creek now had wings! They were the same pretty swirly wings on the mantis that he had just been attempting to eat. The fae giggled in the trees, happy with this turn out and flitted off leaving Creek to try and figure out these new contraptions on his back.
