Bestiary Description
Burun are frog-like creatures introduced during the Across the Vast Divide event. They come in three varieties. Ruuk; small Burun that attack with melee weapons and magic, Guruk; gaint tusker-like Burun that attack with massive weapons and throw huge muck balls, and Kukuur; the enormous bloated king toads that have powerful magic. They can do all three types of physical damage with their melee weapons and acid with their muck balls. Burun are weak to Cold and Fire.
There are three castes of Burun. The Ruuk are a despised caste, the Guruk are warriors and the Kukuur are the ruling caste. The Kukuur are enormous monstrosities with mighty powers. Some have lived for thousands of years, and now they seek only vengeance on those who bear the legacy of the Falatacot.
Inquisitive Isparians seem to have allowed the Burun into the world by accidentally activating a portal beacon that allowed the Ruuk to come here. The Ruuk, led by the brothers Morgluuk and Torgluuk, quickly formed an alliance with the Renegade Tumeroks and were able to dominate the then newly arriving Guruk. Later the Kukuur, the Burun Kings, arrived in Dereth at the bottoms of Falatacot temples.
When the Burun Ruuk first arrived they took control of an area of the Blackmire Swamp surrounding Ixir Zi's Temple. They later spread to the A'mun Desert outside of Fadsahil al-Tashbi the Master Archmage's shop, which turned out to be a Falatacot temple. The Burun then spread to the Direlands in search of more Falatacot temples.
Today they can be found throughout Dereth, but especially in the swamplands of the Direlands and Dereth. Recent developments have also given Isparians access to underground catacombs on the Burun homeworld of Bur.
