Name: General Eciton Maximus
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Species: Army ant
Personality: A ruthless leader who believes that army ants are destined to rule the world, with other species of hive insects below them and other animals working as slaves. Eciton feels that other animals, unorganized as they are, are unworthy to live in the rule of the army ants and that they are blessed to even work as slave labor. He cuts down any his way without a second thought and is willing to sacrifice millions for the sake of the hive. However, this same personality quickly distances him from any who are not part of his species.
Appearance: Picture this, [url=http://myrmecos.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Eciton_Soldier.jpg], picture it bipedal, then picture it with a suit and top hat on. Then picture it on all sixes again.
Strengths: An expert strategist, willing to make any sacrifice.
Weaknesses: Physically weak, completely uncharismatic to non-army ants.
Description: As a young army ant, he underwent physical testing and mental testing like any other non-queen of his species. However it was found that he was much weaker than the average trooper and couldn't move nearly as fast. Almost as if nature was making up for that, he was brilliant at the mental tests and would clearly make a great leader. As he underwent training for his new position, he grew proud of himself and his species as this was a time of great expansion for them and put them on the map of the powerful nations in South America.
Just as his elders predicted, the skirmishes he led went quite well. He quickly rose through the ranks to where he is now, and is already regarded as possibly the best general of the army ants. He hopes to take over the rest of the small fiefdoms of the other animals in South America, but such a thing is quite difficult for even the army ants because it's difficult to hold that much territory especially if the animals fighting now formed an alliance to stop army ant expansion.
