Blindheims are small froglike creatures that emit blinding light from their eyes to help them catch prey. Stupid and crude, they are omnivores and can eat almost anything, even poisonous things such as [[fungus|fungi]] and weird [[underdark]] [[slime]]s that other creatures avoid. They prefer to live near water, enjoying underground lakes and pools as much as surface swamps. Although they often live alone, they sometimes cooperate to catc h larger prey or for mating purposes. Rarely, they collect in a horde, consuming everything in their path, then scattering to individual lairs when their bellies are full.

A blindheim looks like a [[halfling]]-sized [[beastfolk|humanoid frog]] with huge eyes and a wide mouth with needle-sharp teeth and a pair of fanglike incisors. Mostly a dark yellow color, a blindheim is light on the belly, chest, and palms of its hands and feet. Its simple hands are dexterous enough to use tools, but most common blindheims never bother. A living blindheim's eyes constantly emit beams of bright light, although when not threatened or attacking they cover their eyes with transparent eyelids that absorb this light.o If killed, its eyes fade to a dull gold color and no longer emit light.

Although most blindheims are exceedingly primitive, a small number achieve a rudimentary kind of civilization, with experienced war-leaders, a king, and even shamans. Sometimes these important figures have unusual gaze attacks or standard class levels. Tribal blindheims use tools and weapons (mainly darts and javelins) and worship [[slaad]]i.

Blindheims communicate with each other in guttural croaks using a few simple Aquan words. Tribal blindheims have an improved vocabulary based on Aquan.
