On Xen, the player passes through a large cavern with an extremely deep pool at its center. In fact there's a nesy of three Chumtoads. Due to its elusiveness and meaningless appearance, the sighting of a Chumtoad is considered an Easter Egg. However they appear rarely and are extremely hard to find and also cannot be picked up by the player.
Being harmless and the lowest on the Xen food chain, it was intended to be thrown as a way of distracting other Xen creatures who love to eat the little hoppers.
