Cricket

Locust

Dwelling in the distant wilds are the locusts, skilled hunters, and guardians of the wilderness. Armed with bow and blade, these reclusive individuals claim to keep neutrality and focus on their own lands. Naturally connected to the creatures of the wild, locusts travel through the branches with astounding speed before bringing their prey down with a barrage of arrows. Ability Score Increase.
