The Ruby Toad is an ancient and magical ruby jewel belonged to the supernatural god-like monster known only as the Toad God. The Ruby Toad was made from a single carved ruby and was placed on the ancient priest during mummification in order to safeguard it so no one could enter the crypt of the Toad God. Once the Ruby Toad was removed from the neck of a mummified priest of the Toad God, magical energies transformed it into a toad which, unknown to Tussmann, traveled ahead of him down the passage to the crypt to awaken the god that lay beyond.
