The SECRETIVE TOAD - "I'M A STRANGER HERE"

This specimen's potential is to explore as an Innovator sharing discoveries with the world. 

The problem occurs when the Innovator becomes a self absorbed Recluse, refusing to share the wealth or in this case the wisdom.

Hazy Self Image: "It's Not Safe to Surface" 
Motive: To Be Useful
(At first encounter with this specimen it seems their reclusive stance is only temporary, until it's not...)

Characteristics:

In a constant exploratory state
Yet hesitant to chirp about his/her findings
Hops for knowledge & EXPERTISE
Driven to master one hop above the rest

Burrows in isolated terrain
Exhibits high strung behaviours 
Exhausts swampmates with endless questions 
May believe the world is doomed & evil

Regularly retreats to inner world 
Master at deflecting attention away from self
May lie by omission
Prefers to communicate from cyberspace 
Drawn to fantasy worlds
Retreats from emotion & feelings

May obsess over video & computer games 
Submerges in technology
Avoids functioning in real world 
Jumps easily into extremist groups

Closes a bulging eye to peace of mind 
Makes surprise moves to shock, provoke or scare
Chortles chronically about doom and gloom

May become raggedy & unhealthy in appearance 
Habitually antisocial or hostile
Spews poison when loved ones intervene 
Stuck in muddy waters
Without intervention, may remain a stranger to avoid ripples of hurt...
