User:DiCinnoa/Cave Drone Hive

Under the dense crust of the planet Kaedah, a maze of tunnels and massive caverns hold a Yanme'e sub-species known as the Cave Drone. These Drones are in appearance similar to their cousins, but due to being under the ground for so long, their chitinous plates have grown lighter and lighter. Now in the darkest places, their plates glow an ominous green. Thier eyes and wings; though unable to glow, have too become light shades of green.

At first glance these drones almost appear to be covered in a type of moss but a closer look reveals it to be more acidic like. The Cave Drones would have remained hidden for decades had the Yanme'e Emirates not found one of the seven entrances that span the globe. These entrances are almost impossible to find without proper tools. Expeditionary forces often pass over the entrances without knowing, no matter how fast they are going.

Though most Yanme'e Hives are easily accepted by other Hives, the Cave Drones are very cautious as to whom they align themselves with, Yanme'e or not. This cautiousness has prevented the Emirates from viewing the combat tactics of the Cave Drones. The Cave Drone remains a secret to most factions throughout the galaxy.
