Giant roaches are big, fat cockroaches the size of a dog. Like their smaller cousins, they have wings and can fly, albeit not very well. They can be found anywhere there is food and a remote possibility that life can survive. Giant roaches prefer to eat crops and defenseless livestock, only attacking anything that can put up a fight if they are starving or attacked first. A brave exterminator can make a fair amount of quick cash by killing these annoying pests. Some giant roaches lack wings and, rather than possessing a fly speed and the Clumsy Flyer trait, have the ability to burrow 15 feet.
