But praying mantises also have much flatter heads, and the eyes are more bulbous and set farther apart.I've got nothing against Antz, it was a fun movie, but it's not exactly in keeping with the flavor of Dark Sun...The fact that the artist isn't sure what to put in that area and so prefers to cover it up and avoid the issue? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Insects keep their reproductive organs at the end of the abdomen. Thri-kreen lack insect-style abdomens in 3E/4E, however, so they presumably have theirs in the same place as humans. While I wouldn't expect them to look exactly like human naughty bits, they'd probably be similar enough to make covering them up a prudent move from an artistic perspective.</blockquote>
