Preying Mantis

“Being a strain of killer mantis bearing four pairs of large wings upon its back.

Though the wings have atrophied, a flight membrane spanning the legs suggests that these creatures were once able to fly.

They are carnivorous by nature, and very aggressive, attacking with their blood-red sickles held high.

Many villagers call them demons, hungry for blood, and tell tales of them to scare children at night.”
