Omgpion

Diet: Carnivore
Danger Level: 6
Social Ability: 5
Information: An obnoxious bug when by itself. It’s bisected stinger is not poisonous. However, it will attempt to repeatedly sting a target until it is taken down. In most cases, because individuals are not a huge threat, it will just be brushed to the side.

As a pack, this creature can be rather dangerous. The collective stinging effort of at least 10 of these creatures is enough pain to cause serious damage to a creature’s basic motor skills. The pack uses this to their advantage by repeatedly stinging their prey until the pain is unbearable. Those that try to run away are only greeted by another swarm of these creatures that have formed a perimeter. The collective goal of this creature is then to render the creature immobile by causing pain to their legs by stinging and biting.

Once a creature has submitted to the pain, these little bugs become vicious and begin to consume the creature while it is still alive. A pack of 10 can consume a large prey in under an hour.
