As I said, in a later DM-oriented chapter they can have a paragraph on flexing this, but the entire setting should be designed on the basis that it holds true.100% agree. They're mantis-beings, not humans with bug-ish features and maybe extra arms. That DiTerlizzi one is really good. They need to have an abdomen and a totally non-human physique. A lot of the more recent stuff for them just makes them look like 4-armed, vaguely insect-headed humanoids who have a humanoid torso (rather than a thorax and abdomen separately like an insect), and don't even have a real exoskeleton, just bony plates on top of relatively normal flesh.Given Theros is adding Centaurs, who are far more extreme, this surely cannot be a real problem to do either.</blockquote>
