Grook Occultist
This image depicts a Grook Occultist sitting on a stool studying a massive, ancient tome.
Chris Bourassa has out done himself with this image and it is easily one of my all time favorites.
Grooks are a race of humanoid amphibians that can breathe and heal faster when in the water. The are the most intelligent of all the mortal player races in Achaea.

It's a fantastic piece of art, but I don't like it. I always envisioned grooks as Toad of Toad Hall, or Frog from Chrono Trigger.

It's a mugwump! They come in more varieties. The helpfile on them mentions that you get salamander-like ones, and I've seen quite a few of them in that form.
Mugwumps get no love.
I mean, I seriously don't see anyone playing them.
Which makes me sad.

This is pretty close to what I'd have expected a Grook to look like except that I'd figure they'd be stringy rather than bulky in terms of musculature.
hmm
maybe not...
an excellent piece
I don't know if it looks anything like a grook, but it looks fantastic nevertheless.
