their strengths are pan-frequency dominance and total theater saturation.. and impressive individual capabilities, i had one fire up his amplifier about a foot above my head, and i just stood there in awe of the little monster's raw sonic prowess..
Alien creatures that whose attack vector is sound and can be everywhere at once is low key terrifying. They could just vibrate you to death.
no joke, one little cicada can produce a thought cancelling amount of sound close up
Wouldn't that basically work like a microwave?
