Encyclopedia Entry:
A type of insect monster that lives in a group focused around a queen. They dig holes in plains, and caves, making a huge nest. In spite of their small bodies, they possess a frightening amount of strength. They can easily lift and carry objects much larger than themselves. Besides the queen, the rest of them are called “workers.” They perform a variety of tasks including defending the nest, procurement of food, and expansion of tunnels.
During the daytime most of them wander above ground in search of food. When they move above ground, they trace their own paths with pheromones. Others follow the trail, and they form a huge procession. Not only do these pheromones act as path makers, they also effectively serve as an attractant to men. Men entranced by these pheromones will join the procession, and disappear into the nest. They find a man they like among the men who have entered the nest in this way and take him to bed.
