Once an ordinary tadpole in Creekside's shallow pools, this tiny amphibian was among the first to be transformed when supernatural fog began seeping into the water. As construction upstream disturbed the ancient spawning grounds, the mystical energy awakened something fierce and determined in even the smallest creek inhabitants.

This diminutive creature measures only slightly larger than a normal tadpole but possesses an otherworldly resilience and intelligence that sets it apart from its mundane cousins. Its translucent body occasionally flickers with a faint bioluminescent glow when agitated, and it demonstrates an uncanny ability to navigate through the thickest supernatural fog. Despite its small size, it moves with purposeful determination and seems to communicate with larger creatures through subtle water vibrations.

Tadpole Terror serves as an early warning system for approaching creature activity, darting between water features to alert players of supernatural disturbances. It acts as a scout for the larger aquatic horrors, appearing in shallow areas just before major creature emergence events.
