The mantid, Nexus's shock troop. They excel at hunting down and shredding soft, organic targets like humans and other fauna. It has four ejectors that launch harpoons attached to tethers, which brings the victim to the pincers between the forelegs. In the story, Black Phoenix, they have the dubious honor of killing my main character before she is resurrected as the Phoenix. Their artificially attached outer shell is incredibly resistant to small arms fire, and their organic parts are particularly durable. Combined with their mobility they are difficult opponents to put down.
