Acid bugs are insects that inhabit forests and caves that tend to hunt alone. They have green carapaces with bright red markings along both sides, and they usually prey on other insects or other small animals by killing the animal, dissolving the remains with a strong acid, and eating the resulting sludge, but they can also consume plant matter in this way. They are the bane of farmers and traders, as they prey on them and destroy caravans and crops. As such, an intact acid bug shell can be worth a significant bounty in rural towns.
