Vespidian

A Vespidian is a halfling whose animal half is that of a wasp. Vespidians usually wear either all black or black and yellow, and they have amber or transparent wings, along with large antennae protruding from their head. They do not have stingers, but as a general trend, most vespidians are most comfortable wielding swords or spears.
Two of the more prominent species of vespidian are the Yellowjackets, and the Cicada Killers.
The Yellowjacket species of vespidian is very serious and regimented, and they have their own military, which is renowned as one of the strongest and most resilient military forces in the world. They take everything seriously and have no sense of sarcasm or humor.
The Cicada Killer species of vespidian are thugs or crime bosses, and are consistently involved in back-alley dealings or underground crime networks. They are a kind of crime syndicate, and use any means necessary to accomplish their goals.
