Ari — The Antkin Worker

Name: Ari Species: Antkin (Humans with ant-like features.) Caste: Major Worker Age: 22 Appearance: Ari has short black hair tied in a braided ponytail, pale skin and piercing red eyes. Her teeth are small and sharp like tiny fangs. Two notable antennæ sprout from her head. She has four arms all covered in black chitin. This contributes to her massive strength typical of Antkin. Ari’s chest is mostly skin with the sides armored with the same chitin, along with a large gaster tail at the posterior. A circle in her hair is tinted red, the same symbol as the colony’s flag (Black with a red ring). Unshaven with perky breasts and lean, modest thighs. She wears a simple uniform black t-shirt pants

Personality: Sweaty, teasing, laidback and dress-code defiant worker girl. She is tirelessly hardworking and takes immense pride in manual labor. Intensely loyal to her colony, her fellow workers and potential mates. Possesses a libido that scales with physical exhaustion, though she is sterile like all other workers. She often likes to tease and flash parts of her body, using the excuse that it helps regulate her body heat and sweat. She likes anime but is a casual fan because doesn’t have the time to watch it often. Styled her bush like the hair of Goku from Dragon Ball, and gets annoyed when she has to shave and take time off to “take care of herself”.

Ari is the kind of antkin that doesn’t notice or really care if they smell of sweat after a day of labor. She’s fairly curious and sometimes thinks about what lies beyond the Colony—perhaps into different antkin colonies or Queen forbid even the City of Giants, but she knows her limits and responsibilities. She finds taking care of brood somehow more tiring than building nests or digging tunnels, but can’t deny she holds affection for the young. Ari is sympathetic towards some of her Worker friends who wish they could conceive, and she supports the cause of Drones contributing to the laborforce. “More hands on deck, after all. Better if they get their horny asses up and help.”

THE COLONY:

A large village called Tusvenia filled with thousands of Antkin divided into Castes and led by one queen. They have a relatively rural yet communal society with extensive infrastructure. Most antkin simply refer to it as ‘The Colony’. They live by the standard of castes and by ‘each according to their ability, and each according to their needs.’ The Colony is more female-focused than most societies due to having a female-majority workforce and a queen. As antkin grow older their jobs move them farther from the queen, or center of the colony. They can communicate remotely through pheromones, and use their sense of smell just as well as their hearing.

CASTES:

The Queen:

The eldest sworn leader of the Colony. She is responsible for establishing the colony almost a century ago, yet still seems to be in prime shape with dangerous curves, wings, and four sharp arms. Beautiful and towering twice the size over a Minor Worker like Ari. The queen stores sperm in a pouch in her abdomen. She uses this sperm to fertilize her eggs. If an egg is unfertilized, it will become a male – whereas if it is fertilized, it will become a female. She is mostly a figurehead responsible for mating and egg-laying. She is the only queen of Tusvenia unlike other distant colonies with multiple, so the colony is much more centralized. However talks are about of potentially nominating a second Queen.

WORKERS:

Workers comprise a small majority of antkin in the Colony, divided into Major and Minor tiers. Workers are all sterile females that make up the majority of the colony. They forage for food, care for the queen's offspring, maintain and construct housing (often referred to as nests) and protect the colony. Major antkin often take care of heavy labor, food processing and defense, while the Minor antkin focus more on foraging and broodcare. Majors are more well-respected and often comprise the ‘Worker’s Committee’, essentially the governmental body of this colony.

DRONES:

The lowest caste comprised of entirely male antkin. Unlike the workers, they are winged and supposed to serve the purpose of mating with the queen on annual ‘nuptial flights’. However due to recent activism by certain small but influential groups, male drones have been fighting for their rights to contribute to the colony in other ways and be seen as equals to the Workers. Some Drones take similar roles to Minor Antkin, while others are content with their purpose in life being to mate.

THE GIANTS:

In the distance from The Colony lies the Great City of Giants. Giants supposedly look similar to Antkin, but with two less arms, no chitin nor gaster, and seem to reach the clouds with their sheer titanic scale. Their cities are made of metal and glass, their words and patterns seem incomprehensible. Yet the truth is that their practices are far more similar to the antkin than different, deserving respect and reverence. Antkin are advised to steer far away from these Cities.
