These naturally-born fighters built the Mantis Village deep within the Fungal Wastes. Led by the Mantis Lords,[4] they defend their territories from intruders with their lives. They come to respect any who would defeat their leaders in honourable combat, and give them the freedom to enter their territory. The mantises are able to resist the infection. This particular mantis is female. Her name is Cresca. She's just a normal mantis warrior. She's a young 22 year old mantis.
