Ant, Giant

CR 2.00 Vermin N Medium
A thin, six-legged ant the size of a pony stands at the ready, its mandibles chittering and its stinger dripping with venom.

Giant ants are as industrious as their normal-sized kin. While their nests generally don't consist of thousands, their greatly increased size more than compensates.

The statistics given above are for soldier ants—the variety most commonly encountered. The following simple templates can be used to create variants of the standard soldier ant.
