Froglodytes

The Froglodytes are a group that appears in the Sonic Boom television series. They are a horde of villainous anthropomorphic frogs that live in the seal-off Froglodyte Caves below Seaside Island.

Characteristics and culture
The Froglodytes are intelligent, but the majority of them are villainous, violent, monstrous and aggressive (there are exceptions to this behavior). Akin to thieves, their main goals are ravaging and looting other settlements of their possessions and valuables, all while causing as much unwarranted destruction as possible. Possessing a tribal-based society, they have a chief serving as their leader while rest fulfill the roles of soldiers. They all primarily wear dark clothes, except for the prominent members who wears more distinguishable attire befitting their occupation. Their diet also consists solely of a form of white "mystery slob."

The Froglodytes are very traditional, so it is obligatory for all members to follow their way of life, whether they like it or not. The tribe has its own military which all of them must participate in. Here, soldiers are put through rigorous training regiments to build them up as warriors. A drill instructor oversees the soldiers' training while straightening out any disobedience that might surface. In case of an invasion, the drill instructor serves as the field commander over the lesser soldiers.

The Froglodytes' lifestyle is rather simple, bordering on primitive. Most of them worship a god named Froggy Moundious whom they offer sacrifices to, no matter how measly since their resources are limited. They have very few modern commodities and their weapons consist of fairly old-fashion spears and clubs. As such, any finer commodities introduced to their society are greatly appreciated.

Having been described as a "horde", the Froglodytes are immensely large in numbers. This attribute makes up for the tribe's general lack of strength, allowing them to swarm and overwhelm otherwise more powerful foes.

Season one
For a long time, the Froglodytes were trapped in their caves by Sticks the Badger, who blocked the only exit into her burrow. Taking notice when Amy removed the blockade, the Froglodytes invaded Sticks's Burrow. Despite resistance from Team Sonic, they took Sticks into their caves to sacrifice her to Froggy Moundious. However, they were stopped by Team Sonic, who rescued Sticks after a battle and trapped them in their caves again. The Froglodytes were not too upset though, as they got new furniture from what Team Sonic left behind.

Trivia

 * Froglodyte is a portmanteau of the words "frog" and "troglodyte," the latter of which typically refers to a person who lives in a cave.
