In-Game Information
Edit
An abnormally large Thunderbug raised inside the body of an elder dragon and known to inhabit the same regions as its former host, its electrical attack is deadly. This bug has various uses as a material for crafting weapons and items.
Taxonomy
Edit
Order:Insect Eye - Suborder:Flash Insect - Family:Lightning Chu. Large Neopterons that have the ability to generate electricity. It is almost impossible to actually see what a great thunderbug looks like, as it glows a blinding white most of the time.
Habitat Range
Edit
Great Thunderbugs can be seen most commonly and widespread in any location that is very warm and humid, such as the jungles, swamps, and even the ancient tower. They also seem to follow the creature known as Yama Tsukami, but for unknown reasons.
Ecological Niche
Edit
It is unknown for sure what eats them or what they eat them selves, but they are known to live and possibly nest within Yama Tsukami. It is possible that when seperated from there main group, example when a hunter scares away a attacking groups, they may fall prey to common insectivores.
Biological Adaptations
Edit
Great thunderbugs as small and defenseless as they may be, can become a very dangerous threat when in swarms. These swarms collected into separate groups house enough electrical power to paralyze a fully grown human. Ones that live with Yama Tsukami have the deadly extra ability to overcharge them selves and explode on attackers of their living home.
Behavior
Edit
Great Thunderbugs are known for aggressive behavior for unknown reasons. It could be that they use there large numbers and ability to electrocute and paralyze to kill and eat small animals. Great Thunderbugs that live within the Yama Tsukami appear very aggressive towards attackers of there living home, going as far as sacrificing them selves to defend Yama Tsukami.
