Description:

The Parasitoid is a deadly extraterrestrial creature known for its agility, strength, and cunning. Its black exoskeleton is resistant to damage, and it possesses acidic blood that can corrode most materials. Parasitoids are stealthy hunters, capable of climbing walls and ambushing prey. Their life cycle includes various stages:

• Egg, the queen lays eggs from which a larva will emerge when a warm body is near enough.

• Larva once hatched the larva needs to find a host in one day or die off.

• Chrysalis, the larva usually latches to the host’s head and ditches its skin while pushing itself into the host’s body through the mouth. Something in this stage causes the Parasitoid to acquire some of the physical traits of the host’s body.

• Juvenile, 48 hours after the Chrysalis stage has started a juvenile will burst out of the host’s body (usually from the chest). It will reach adult size in a matter of hours.

Types:

There’s four known types of Parasitoid, but so little it’s known about this species that no one dares say it’s the only types that exist, more research needs to be done, something highly dangerous that so far nobody has attempted to do.
