I beleive it is, but I'm not sure where our Grimthingie II is
at the moment. *grin*

Well, the toads are large by /toad/ standards...average body
length of 30 cm, average weight 3 Kg. So, maybe they don't eat bugs
'till they get bigger. *gribbit^H^H^H^Hn*

"They are the future, if we do not stem the tide now." I missed
that the first time through, but yes, that /is/ scary. Is it a plotline
that FASA dumped in favor of the bugs, or (even scarier) could it be that
insect spirits are somehow connected to the creation of wraiths?
Food for thought...maggoty, sure, but still food....

The large & fearsone Wyrd Mantis in PAEurope is mentioned as being
"exactly what Insect Shamans work toward." But yes, it never says
specifically that they're anti-humanoid, simply that they can be nasty.

Haven't heard of that, but then I haven't read Bug City yet.
