I was thumbing through Double Exposure when I suddenly re-discovcered something interesting: the parasytical Dragonfly Larvae, used by a UB subsidery corp in the process of waste processing. They are used to keep metahuman victims alive so that a toxic spirit could channel the industrial waste from soil and water into the poor victims' bodies.
The interesting thing about them is that they mix the characteristics of both a Flesh Form and a True Form - They are supposed to be "dual beings", yet have a seperate astral reaction and have the letter A after their Essence - signifying that they are Astral beings; they have the powers/weaknesses of a True Form yet have no Force attribute and no Immunity to Normal Weapons as True Forms (as spirits) usually have. I was thinking of using them in my upcomming Bug City campaign, and I wonder if any of you have written a detailed description of this Insect Spirit "breed". If not, I'll write it. |

Dragonflies are one of the deadliest insects out there (insect to most creatures wise..) figures they would be pritty nasty as bug spirits. Way back when they used to be a hundred times bigger....
