Silk Mantis

Very dangerous and aggresive creatures that use the blade in their arms to cut and slash anyone that threatens the colony.

Silk Mantis Queen

The Queen is an inmobile creature that uses pheromones to charm their enemies and other Mantises that obey her commands without hesitation.
She is the only Queen in the hive and the leader of it. All Mantises will answer to her telepathic commands.

Killing her will make the rest of the hive become crazy and purposeless for a while, until they choose another Silk Mantis to be the next Queen and reconstruct the hive, so it may be important to kill every single Mantis and egg.

The pheromones will attract also other creatures, who will be charmed by her and obey her commands as well.
Small Silklings may spawn from the eggs.

Silkling

It may be cute and harmless but be careful if they start stacking or they may become a problem.

They usually spawn from nearby eggs when they feel the time is right. It can be whether a threat is near or because another Silk Mantis gave them the order to do so.
