Bullfrog Kung Fu
Inspired by this video called "Bullfrog Battle Royale". It is from a BBC documentary and features David Attenborough and a lot of frogs.
Bullfrog Kung Fu Bullfrog males gather in the center of ponds to sing (a group of bullfrogs is known as a chorus, which I find delightful) to attract females. The closer to the center of the pond, the better. So naturally they fight each other - this is mostly done by jumping into each other and see who bounces farthest. But there's also biting and wrestling moves involved. A bullfrog brawler uses Brawling for biting and Jumping for their "pounces". There are also some wrestling moves involved. A cinematic bullfrog (possibly a giant one) would be able to take enormous leaps and remain as immovable as a rock. Skills: Brawling, Jumping, Wrestling. Techniques: Head Lock; Wrench (Arm). Cinematic Skills: Flying Leap; Immovable Stance; Kiai*; Push. Perks: Jumping Tackle; Swallow Head. (There is an appalling lack of frog-specific techniques in Martial Arts) Optional Traits Skills: Singing; Survival (Swamp). Perks Caruso Caruso You can use Singing instead of Sex Appeal when trying to woo frog ladies. Jumping Tackle When doing a pounce, you can substitute your Jumping skill instead of DX or some other skill. With this perk, you get to add +1 to ST for pouncing purposes if you have Jumping at DX+2, and +2 if you have Jumping at DX+3. Swallow Head This allows you to use a Brawling bite attack to initiate a Head Lock. Since bullfrogs have Born Biter 3, they can do this on quite large opponents (including other bullfrogs). * suggested by Fred Brackin |

There are some guidelines for making up martial arts for races with different body plans or parts in GURPS Furries.

Love it :) We need more animal martial arts, silly or not.

Needs Kiai as a Cinematic Skill.

Re: Bullfrog Kung Fu
The bumping each other part made me think Sumo Wrestling might be appropriate.
