Quite larger than any common bedbug, this gigantic species is about the size of a small sheep. With hairy legs, powerful pincers, and a chitinous shell like battle armor, immediate flight from this extremely dangerous insect is advised, if possible; for the quick bedbug will quickly scuttle to block all routes of escape. There are several effective alternative methods to combat: singing lullabys, yawning, or fake sleeping are all that is needed to compel the bedbug to curl up into a well-armed piece of sleeping bedbug armor and drift off into slumber. Be warned, while not easy to disturb, it is hazardous to rouse this motionless insect from its slumber; for the byproduct of such a venture is a weary and angry bedbug.
During the Great Monster Uprising of the Second Age of Magic, giant bedbugs were reported in the following regions: White Cliffs Beach, Fenshire, The Gray Mountains, Antharian Caves, Forest of Youth, Crab Island, The Old Lingolf House, and the G.U.E. Tech Training Grounds in the Ethereal Plane of Atrii.
Megaboz (c. 883 GUE) was able to summon these insects at will.
