Common traits
NetHack ants are neutral animals that are carnivorous and oviparous, and have limbs but no hands. They are generally very fast monsters that attack using bites - the vanilla ants all have 18 speed and a bite attack, and are a frequent game-ending menace for early characters - this has earned them the nickname "Team Ant".
Encyclopedia entry
This giant variety of the ordinary ant will fight just as
fiercely as its small, distant cousin. Various varieties
exist, and they are known and feared for their relentless
persecution of their victims.
