Their origins are a topic of debate amongst Scholars, what is known howevr is the Grogar first appeared a thousand years ago from the Southern Lands, sweeping across like a plague, raiding and pillaging villages and towns in their path. Soon the Kingdoms responded in kind, fighting off this viscous horde till they were defeated, and then scattered across the continent. The Grogar are quite interesting in Gender, the males are about the size of the average man, while females are large, imposing beasts, their temperament matches their appearance. Their reproduction methods are also strange, similar to that of reptiles or fish, the females laying eggs for the males to later fertilize them.
