After looking at Frogs and Newts I decided to create a character that was a mixture of the two. And to also draw upon my interests in folklore and mythology, I looked into marsh/bog dwelling creatures.
A Boggart is a mischievous imp that lives in marshland. It is often seen as a malevolent being. So I wanted to create something that wasnt evil or spiteful, but something that was cheeky and humorous.
This led me to create Humphrey Boggart (his name being a wink to the late, great actor Humphrey Bogart).
He is a mixture of elements of both the frog and the newt, albeit with heightened human
