They have 4 legs and 2 arms. |

| Magic | One in five million have heart or soul magic. Mind and body magic are possible. Void is possible. Faith is not uncommon. |
| Special Powers | The swarm have the ability to breed rapidly, building up huge populations, which then swarm across the lands and devour all the crops in the area, leaving nothing for others. The swarm are excellent jumpers and fliers, with great endurance. They have sharp hearing via organs on their abdomen. |
| Weaknesses | Harvest magic or faith can harm them. |
| Culture | The swarm live in quiet villages for years and years, leading normal lives, until their populations reach critical levels and their exoskeletons become brightly colored. They then swarm and ruin the area for crops for years, then move on to new areas. The name they have for themselves is nigh unpronoucneable, but is approximated zwozrrkm. |
