A deer nibbled at my dragon fruit cactus, not Khorne. Assassin bugs are fantastic generalist predators and this nymph hitched a ride on my plants as I took them indoors for the winter. I'm keeping it around as pest control and hopefully some others will join it. Aphids for the Aphid God.
Oh cool I didn't know assassin bugs were a whole class of bugs. I was at a museum recently and saw some but they were way more beetle-y looking than your pal khorne there.
I can't tell which species Khorne is, but the local one I see most often looks like this as an adult:
They're so neat. My pollinator gardens at work are full of them collecting exoskeletons for the exoskeleton throne.
edit: specifically Phymata americana. I think Khorne might be a Zelus luridus.
That's really cool. Bugs are so neat. They have such a crazy array of chemical weapons, defenses and tools
I'm pretty ok with my life but sometimes I wish I could go back in time and become a biologist instead of a life-enthusiast
I hate that my horticulture degree only included one entomology course which was half-assed. They're such a critical part of my work but a big blind spot for me scientifically.
Luckily now you are making up for it with some half-assassins now
