Colossus wasp

Colossus wasps are spacefaring insects that grow to be over a kilometer in length. Their varried diet consists of living matter such as space slugs, inanimate matter such as asteroidal minerals, and even pure energy such as stellar radiation. Colossus wasps had some form of natural self-defence, although what exactly, is unknown.

Colossus wasps were native to the Stenness Node. When they died, the local miners refurbished the carapace to create Ithullian Ore Haulers. Demand for Ore Haulers led to colossus wasp poaching, a business as deadly as it was illegal.
