= Overview =
{{Lore}}

A humanoid creature with the head of an insect and chitinous armor all over their body.

Insectoids are one of the species of '''feral animal-people''', species that have evolved to grow humanoid traits and sufficient intelligence to use tools and weapons, but have remained largely 'feral'; they inhabit small, hidden communities in the UA, or are nomadic. Usually, they also do not speak any understandable [[Languages|language]], though there are some rare exceptions.

These humanoid creatures have an average height of 5 foot 8 inches, and adults weigh 140 to 145 lbs on average. They possess humanoid arms and legs, with five-fingered hands and toes, however they also possess a pair of wings and wing guards, similar to that of a grasshopper. Most importantly, the head of an insectoid resembles that of a number of insects, varying depending on the individual. Insectoids have been observed with heads resembling that of ants, flies, grasshoppers, dragonflies, bees, and hornets.

The near-entirety of an insectoid's body is covered in natural, chitinous armor which is sufficiently tough and resilient to be considered a form of armor. It is sufficiently efficient to cause certain bullets, namely expanding bullets, to flatten on their bodies and leave little more than dents. Though these will still cause pain and wounds, it is much less effective than FMJ or any type of armor-piercing ammunition.

Although insectoids all possess facial mandibles capable of delivering poisonous bites, insectoids are capable of using weapons, and are frequently found carrying a variety of firearms. Though they don't seem to be very skilled or proficient in their use, that alone makes them a significant threat that should not be underestimated.

Like all members of the '''Bugs''' category, the origin of these creatures is unknown. Because they lack any magical or supernatural elements, it has been theorized that these creatures are the result of some type of past scientific experiment gone wrong, and that they have since escaped into the UA and become a species native to the Uncivilized Area. Remarkably, this is the same prevalent theory behind the existence of other feral animal-people.
