Hornet

Resembling a mosquito without legs, Hornets (also known as Waspsters) (fr: Frelions/Frôlions) are one of the two flight-capable monsters, the other being the Mantas. Hornets have ten thin wings, five on each side of their bodies, which allow them to fly at speeds rivaling those of the vehicles. The Eye of Xana dominates their forehead, and their small size makes them easy to dispatch regardless of where they are hit; however, their speed and maneuverability makes hitting them quite difficult.

Hornets carry two types of weapons. The first is a laser equipped on their stinger-like tail that causes 20 points of damage. They fire it by jabbing their tail at a target like a stinger. In season one, they were able to attack rapidly with this weapon,but this was removed in season two onwards. They make up for this by massing their fire. The second, albeit rarely used weapon, is a massive proboscis that can spit corrosive. acidlike poison. The poison drains life points from everyone touching it at a rate proportional to how much is present. Poison-bearing Hornets have thirty additional lifepoints. Hornets usually travel in groups of three to five,in order to mass their fire and cause more damage to the warriors. They utilize their speed to do attack runs on targets, quickly flying in with a barrage of lasers and leaving just as fast. When a target is in a confined space or immobile, they will circle around the target and fire from all angles. The groups of three to five have one leader and two to four wingmates. Supposedly, destroying the leader might destroy its wingmates, but this has never happened. Hornets can destroy themselves (mostly on the mountain sector) by smashing themselves to certain places like mountains or on the ground. with their own speed if they're not careful of where they are going.
