Diwata Mantis Nymphs

The Diwata Mantis Nymphs are introduced in Book 5 as relentless aerial swarms birthed by the goddess Diwata, serving as living siege weapons that target stairwells, towers, and airships. Their infinite spawn rate and high mobility make them a persistent threat throughout the later floors, forcing crawlers to adapt their tactics to aerial and vertical combat. As the series progresses, these nymphs evolve from simple swarm fodder into strategic obstacles that shape the battlefield, compelling characters to develop new countermeasures and alliances.
