Overview
Created in the year 195 BL during The Time of Chaos, the Vykathi are an insectoid race living in a hive beneath Chyolvea Tayeu'a, an ancient fortress in the Dragon Spine Mountains. Strong of mind as they are of body the Vykathi were the first to resist Dzree's attempts at control during her summoning and breeding experiments [1].
Castes
Aside from the Vykathi Queen, the different vykathi castes are:
| Creature Level | Min Cap | Max Cap | Gem | Coin | Box | Skin | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vykathi builder | 23 | 120 | 170 | false | false | false | false |
| Vykathi excavator | 23 | 120 | 170 | false | false | false | false |
| Vykathi harvester | 36 | 160 | 220 | false | false | false | true |
| Vykathi soldier | 46 | 200 | 280 | false | false | false | true |
| Vykathi reaper | 46 | 250 | 340 | false | false | false | true |
Special Defenses
- Vykathi are immune to stuns, both physical and magical (such as Arc Light).
- They appear (APPRAISE CAREFUL) immune to slicing. Slice damage tends to do nothing more than scuff a vykathi's carapace [2].
Currency
Vykathi use slivers of oravir marked with a series of black bands as some form of currency. While not used by any other race, the right collector may be willing to exchange more common coins for them. Oravir slivers are just that. They are not uniform in shape or size (although larger ones are not used or broken down into smaller slivers for storage purposes) and have no markings on them whatsoever [3].
