A swarm of inch long, viciously stinging insects, Golden Wasps aren't actually made of gold, rather, they construct their hives out whatever metals and minerals might be in the surrounding area. A swarm can strip a houshold of all it's metal in a day, and if left alone in a mineshaft, can create truly exquisite hives of gold and precious gems. They are extremely aggressive, and will violently swarm if anything approaches their territory. Some dwarves have taken to farming them, using the hives to extract wealth from areas that are difficult to access, and calming them with incense during the harvest. Instinct: To protect the hive

• Swarm aggressively
• Crawl into chinks in armour
• Devour metal and steal gems
