Giant hornet

Giant hornets were aggressive massive mutations of the normal-sized hornets.

Description
Giant hornets were flying carnivorous insects with long bodies, a fell stinger, and an average wingspan of 10 feet or more.

Behavior
The giant hornets were solitary but extremely aggressive insects, rarely encounter in groups. They always attacked on sight.

The fire had a weakening effect on these giant insects, and smoke was as a repellant.

Combat
The giant hornets swooped down on its prey, pinning and holding the victim with its legs repeatedly stabbing them with the poisonous stinger. The poison in the stinger caused 2-6 hours of paralyzation.

Fortunately, the hornets' buzzing was loud enough to be heard 150 feet away in the dungeon corridors and from half as far outside, preventing the unexpected and stealth attacks.

Ecology
They were carnivorous, just like their normal-sized relatives. Unlike bees, hornets did not lose their stingers and lives after the attack.

The giant hornets' natural habitat were coniferous forests, and on occasion, underground caves.
