Killers are a minority in most nests, though one which has suffered a lot of casualties will hatch additional killers. Little bigger than feeders, killers have scaly plates and, in addition to their mandibles, killers have a stinger, much like a scorpion. This injects venom which will rarely kill an adult human but causes disorientation and hallucinations as well as some damage to the body’s systems. Enough venom will immobilise or even kill, but usually by the time that much has been injected, the killers will have ripped the victim apart and the feeders begun carrying bits back to the nest
