CLASS: ARTHROPOID

   The fusion of a human with a tachinid fly. A swift leaper and climber, the female Zeze pounces victims and plunges her ovipositor into their flesh, injecting a brood of short-lived but ravenous embryonic clones to be re-eaten by their mother along with prey remains. Fertilization by a male Zeze or other parahuman can yield fully viable offspring, though these may destroy their own mother from within before a suitable host can be located, cannibalizing one another until only the strongest may remain.

   Zeze are known for their arrogance and vanity, refusing to bend to authority and fancying themselves "royalty" among the Dipteran Arthropoids, whose dimmer intelligence easily bends to their will.
