Giant mantis nymph

s are creatures found in the Mojave Wasteland. The earliest they can be found is at the schoolhouse in Goodsprings.

Characteristics
While not much different in appearance from regular mantis, the nymphs have slightly more violet wings.

Nymphs are small enough that, if the Couriers Strength is over 6, and simply walks into or over them, they will be trodden on and die instantly without costing any ammunition.

Appearances
s appear in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * Often times, somewhat humorously, mantis nymphs will immediately die when attempting to attack the player. This likely results from the fact that they can be stepped on and killed, rendering their melee attack little more than a quick method of suicide.
