Lie-Catcher Beetle

Family/Type Beetle/Bug

Habitat: Cities, caves, forests, mountainous regions

Disposition: Mischievous, cheerful, cruel,

Diet: Herbivorous, lies

A strange blue carapaced beetle mamono, that, in cycles past, would sneak into the mouth of a humanoid or even other monsters and latch onto the creature's diaphragm, when such a thing would be sleeping and whenever the being would lie, the beetle would agitate the muscle and cause the person/thing to hiccup. If the person would ever write down a lie whenever the beetle was in the being, the beetle would continuously agitate the muscle until the lie is erased, or the victim dead. But of course, this changed when the current Demon Lord tookover, due to a noticable size increase, the Lie-Catcher Beetle can no longer sneak inside your body and agitate your diaphragm, but instead, have numerious new abilites that make up for the difference.

They know at any point when someone is lying or using magic to cover up the truth or do something similar. This leads to their next ability where in which they can cast a curse on a person or mamono, that causes them to hiccup whenever they lie or write a lie. Unlike in their pre-demon lord times the written lie's hiccuping only lasts about 10 seconds. and finally, Most know a decent amount of illusion magic, focusing their knowledge on such things like invisbility spells. The curse is usually permanent, but telling nothing but the truth for 3 hours appears to remove it.

Usually they use these powers for either entertainment or feeding, as they appear to feed off of lies, this feeding is undescribed, but apparently, the bigger the lie, the more sweeter and bigger it is a meal. However the only way to feed off of said lies is to curse the person with their... hiccup curse. They can feed on things on sap and such, but do like a good lie everynow and then, when trying for a husband, despite their rather cheerful nature when they aren't cursing people, they aren't really known to be able to pick up guys with strength or social skills, and so usually resort to blackmailing them to get them to love them.

Some feel horrible about this and try to make it up for him, and others don't depends on their general personality, if they like feeding on lies constantly, the blackmailing won't seem to be that much of a big deal, if they feed very little to not at all, they feel horrible, and for how they are able to blackmail their potential husband. This usually requires planning on their part, them being knowledgeable about a certian thing a man is trying to do and then they intercept it with their curse. Afterwhich, if the man doesn't beat them into the ground or just run away... far away, they marry the man and usually do a complete 180 on their mischievous behaviour, and become almost more quiet, not talking up even if it would make certain scenes funnier, and almost never curse people anymore. Unless of course called upon to do so, Lie-Catcher Beetles are also great for some people looking out scammers or frequent liars, since she can instantly tell when somebody's lying or covering it up with magic, also, due to this they are complete rivals with Gyoubu Danukis.

A Lie-Catcher Beetle has a appearance similar to a Soldier Beetle, but instead of a brown color, they have a bright blue carapace, they don't have any hand weapons that they can pull out, and they have three horns on their head, the middle one similar to a Goliath Beetle (Which would make it 5 horns huh?) and the other two similar to how a Succubus is styilized, their hair colors range from black, green, or blue, and their eye colors can range from just about anything.
