The AntAgonizer

AntAgonizer is a woman that seems to have some kind of control over giant ants. She is fighting her nemesis, the Mechanist in the town of Canterbury Commons and is dressed in an ant costume, emulating a comical 'supervillainess' style persona.

In truth, her family was killed by ants when she was younger, and she has become deluded into believing that ants are superior to humans, citing their instinctual willingness to work together to accomplish goals unlike humans' desire to kill one another through warfare. The PC can receive a quest to stop her battle with the Mechanist, and with enough Speech skill (or the Black Widow/Lady Killer perk), she can be talked out of the attack without any need for violence.

Interestingly, if you go to Hubris Comics Publishing in DC, you'll find a terminal. A letter to the editor actually mentions the "Antagonizer" as a one of Grognak's villains. The letter expresses sadness as the villain was "never developed fully". The Antagonizer's background matches the comic book Antagonizer exactly and she was to appear in "Grognak and the Ants of Agony", but it appears the comic was thrown out due to bad writing.
