Species Standards
Prefered Habitat: Vespa usually are seen in the great wooded mountains of the north (where their prey is
primarily abundant) - but it is rumored that some variety are found in the dense jungles of the south - and
few still are found nested within' the canyon walls of the deserts in the west.
Diet: Vespa are often called "Dragon-Eaters", and their diet is (obviously) rumored to be.. dragons. Surely, a
little worm such as this (which only seems to really eat bugs) would not be a "dragon-eater".
Call: Trills and Chitters mostly, at least when they're worms. They make noises rarely however - and they
are often strange, and difficult to translate into "happy" and "sad" (as you would be able to do with a purr or
hiss).
Special Care Needs: Parent vespa take very good care of their young - and as such, they generally need
caring for (though no more than a puppy, in fact - probably less).
Biology and Anatomy: Vespa are extra-ordinarily agile flying creatures - and fast too. When they grow up,
it's said that they are large enough to carry a rider, and beautiful enough to attract any dragon. Their sting is
perhaps the most deadly part of them (as their bite isn't that powerful).. Their sting carries a toxin that will
take effect in a matter of seconds, and temporarily paralyze their victim for two minutes.... This is not strong
enough of an effect to kill a human (or even a dog, for that matter) - but a dragon..? Can you imagine the
terrible effect of being paralyzed in mid-flight, half a mile in the air..?
Behavioral Study: Vespa have extraordinarily good eye-sight, better they say than that of a hawk. As such,
their beautiful gem-like eyes should be protected, and they spend a good part of their day using their
arm-like appendages to clean them and their short antennae.
Suggested Uses: Do not be fooled by the gem-like appearance of their eyes - they are not gems, and are
not valuable. Their value is only present when they are alive and healthy - which is probably why they have
been surviving so well. We're not sure why you'd want a worm.. a "dragon-eating" worm no less.. which...
doesn't eat dragons. O. o

| Breeds Available |
Amber: If there would be a "standard" breed of Vespa, the Amber would be it. They are by far the hardiest of
the Vespa breeds produced in the labs for the public, and can go much longer between meals than the
regular breeds. They seem to be the only breed able to live in such arid climates as the deserts - but do not
prefer it.
Ruby: Ruby could also be considered a "standard" breed - it is the breed that is seen in the wooded
mountainous regions. Anywhere there is both large rocky areas and plenty of trees to hide in, the Ruby
Vespa will probably make it's home.
Amethyst: Though Amethyst is a "standard" breed - it is considered by many to be the "royal" breed - having
the royal colors of "royale" (purple) and "gold" (yellow). The knights of Genevi have all been provided with a
"royal" Vespa as a pet or companion, and thus they are now retired - as they were all taken by not only the
Knights, but the public.
