Everyone in @azurbala has been on the edge of their seats to waiting hear @jenkinsthevalet story.
It has inspired me to start to open up about mine. It's not been easy as I reflect on it.
Story Time: A little background lore to Warrior Frog
After v1 Azurians - we went back and polled the community with various moodboards on direction for the new art
On one of the moodboards (the “jungle punk” moodboard) was an image of a frog that looked like a warrior…
If there’s one thing crypto seems to love… it’s fun-looking, memeable frogs
Amongst a sea of other images on the moodboards, there was an outcry of love for this warrior frog, which was just at the time a small image on a vast moodboard that made some people smile
Many clamored for this warrior frog… so we wanted to immortalize this moment with the community with the Warrior Frog 1/1… revealed today via a 1/1 golden root by @CryptoEcons
In that way, this 1/1 is a piece of Azurian history, an ode to working together with the community… and fitting to be revealed on day 1 of 2024

Introducing: 𝐇o𝐧k𝐚k𝐮 ♾👀
Johnny won the Azurian crossword championship at age 12, but then completely dropped out of the scene. He went to a nondescript college, and later launched the Honkaku Detective Agency with his twin brother, Alf.
Alf -- short for Alfred -- attended Doromere University, where he studied forensic pattern analysis. He has the uncanny ability to see patterns in the way that others see shapes and colors. He left school after a disagreement over authorship of a seminal research paper.
Their office is in a particularly jungly back-corner building in The Sprawls, which used to house a lobster restaurant. They call the place “The Lobster Den.”
The twins are credited with solving a number of the most baffling and seemingly impossible crimes in the history of @azurbala, including the mystery of the missing Vosace Crown Jewel, the marrow-hack murder, and -- perhaps most famously -- a locked-room heist that came to be known nationwide as the “Boar’s Tusk Caper.”
They don’t take every case, but if you're in need, you can reach out to the 𝐇o𝐧k𝐚k𝐮 𝐃e𝐭e𝐜t𝐢v𝐞s.
