Default Mythological Info wanted

I am looking for info on the following - Item one: a " Toothed Frog " figure is often depicted in Togogon; does anybody know the significance or name of this figure? It is often painted green, but sometimes red. There is an example in the Netherlands National Museum. Item two: Semar, the primary Panakawan, was turned into a fat dwarf by Arjuna for having committed a great sin against Arjuna. Does anybody know what this sin was? What's the story? Did he sleep with the guy's wife or something? Haven't been able to get this info from any collector / expert yet. Do you know? Mark LeFont at marklefont@att.net
