From the dark crevice a large segmented insect lunged out, its long pincers coming together with a spine-chilling clacking. Or at least that is what I remember, the giant bug coming at me like it hadn’t eaten in months. Its bite connected and poisoned me. I encountered this abnormal vermin when I first started my career as a hunter. It was a close fight, its pincers leaving many scars, but my sword finally clove through its head, leaving it twitching in the mud of the old ruin.

While all sizes of centipedes are solitary, if an environment supports them, they can be a common occurrence.
