In the Dawn Era, the waterways of Hurgs Scar, flanked by great cliffs, massive cave systems, some at the waterline, were wild and remote. Places like Froglem, built by the 1st Bullwug Workers Legion, changed all that. Froglem began as a recruiting area for native workers, then a supply base, a market and then a great river port feeding the construction work in the rugged uplands of Laat Viing.

In the reign of Mir'piamauza (526 HE - 1612 HE), Froglem was always in the grip of chaos, suffering frequent government change and periods of mob rule. It went through long periods of religious fanaticism, first with bullywug worshiping slaadi lords and bloodthirsty sacrifices, then worshiping an ancient black dragon, and later Graagvrii answering to an undead cult dedicated to Orcus.

Froglem is known for its massive bronze frog statues. Some still as living areas of squalid conditions. With the rising water table of Viing Qeth, much of this once great city is overgrown and partially submerged. Areas of commerce and security exist as small enclaves, villages and gangs.
