Insect

Insects (蟲) are a race of creatures mostly composed of arthropods that have multiple limbs or possess carapace bodies. They can be found in both YGGDRASIL and the New World.
== Background ==
Various types of insect species exist each possessing unique abilities and functions. While many are mere monsters, lacking intellect some are possessed intelligence that matches humans. These types are usually bipedal, though not always absolute, and are capable of reasoning. In fact, these bipedal insects were among the many heteromorphic races that could be chosen to be played as by players in YGGDRASIL.
In the New World, it was said that some people even rode large insects, such as Giant Ants or Giant Mantises.Overlord Special Edition 01 Chapter 2
