mantis
Have you ever seen a preying Mantis? This race is an evolved form of these, and every bit as nasty. Their natural dexterity and agility and numerous limbs give them the kick, kung fu, and dual wield skills. They are very intelligent and disciplined, but as you might imagine they are not the most charismatic race, although they are rather lucky. The mantis race can see in the infrared spectrum, and is resistant to negative and light attacks. The best way to kill a mantis is to use fire or cold attacks. See showrace mantis for more details.
