Ecology: Distant relatives of the New Zealand Weta, the Weta-Rex is a huge form of the cricket-like creature, swarming in the hundreds in the chasms of Skull Island. Pack-hunters, they are fairly fearless and will quickly overwhelm any potential prey item, cutting it to pieces with shearing mouthparts.
Personality/Motivation: Normal animal motivations.
Powers/Tactics: A Weta-Rex attacks by biting. They tend to spring along, and can move quickly for their size. Capable of climbing the chasm walls with ease, they have been known to drop down on foes.
Appearance: A Weta-Rex looks like a 3' long version of the much, much smaller Weta. They are brownish in color, with a short thorax and a large head.
Designer's Notes: The Weta-rex's character sheet was based off of the character sheets for the Guard Dog and the Giant Wasp. They appeared in King Kong, attacking our heroes en-masse until being gunned down by concentrated Thompson submachine gun fire. Another translation for Deinacrida is terrible grasshopper.
