Moriya the Giant Wood Frog (Suwako's pet)

Name: Moriya
Nickname: Moriya-chan
Age: 4
Species: Wood Frog (Episode in Avatar - The Blue Spirit)
Appearance: The female frog was massive, about 6 feet length, 5 feet in width, and 10 feet in height. Her skin was slimy and smooth, as well as showed a base color of dull grey. A pale violet streak went from her forehead to her back, the area in what seem to be her cheeks the same shade of purple. Her eyes kept the normal color of a Wood Frog, golden with the sideways slit being brown, and her feet were webbed a lighter grey than the rest.

Spoiler:

Personality: Moriya is very relaxed and calm, if not sleepy. She tends to dislike too much work and may be lazy at times, swatting away anyone trying to give her trouble while she's trying to rest. She has a good respect for Suwako, always working with him during his plans to get food, get places, or just plain work out her hibernation cycle. Otherwise, she may gain a respect, or she just might see you as a pest to bug her.
Background: Moriya was born the same time as when Suwako was 3. They didn't know each other until the frog seemed to be dismayed one winter, strangely not freezing enough to join her fellow frogs into hibernation. Suwako, trying to survive in the forest at such a young age, found Moriya and decided to give some kindness to the frog, taking some leftover ice that broke off from the other frogs and piling it up on the then-brown amphibian. This allowed the frog to hibernate partially correctly.

When the winter ended, Moriya found the boy at the area they met, who was worried she didn't sleep well. A hop and a "kero" later, Moriya found herself being fed the leftovers of the human, better than flies that the other frogs ate. However, due to the unnatural diet, Moriya grew bigger, and bigger. Maybe it was the really big meats... or maybe it was the nutrition in general. Her coloring changed and her size grew tenfold over the many years... not that Suwako actually knew at first, he though ALL the animals in the Swamp were big. Oh well.

Now, she's carrying the youth on her back, off onto daily life... well, as daily as a seven year old child of the forest and a giant frog could get.
