The Spew Weevil is a deadly breed of parasitic bug. It is one of the many insects bred by Tommyrod.
Anatomy
The Spew Weevil is a large insectoid that can grow to be around 40 centimeters in length and reach up to a human's knee in height, and when fully grown it can weigh up to 2 kilograms. Its exoskeleton is gray and bulbous, with eight long legs, two of which it uses two stand on which gives it a bipedal appearance, and two wings. It has a rather long proboscis with a spike on its tip.
Behavior
It grows to maturity by absorbing nutrients from its host's body. The Spew Weevil picks its prey at random, eating its way in through the anus and laying its eggs in the gut.
Powers and Abilities
As its name suggests, the vomit it spews is so foul that anyone within a kilometer who catches a whiff will be knocked unconscious. With its wings it is capable of flying quite rapidly and it is able to survive in cold climates for an unknown amount of time.
History
Century Soup Arc
As Tommyrod and his team prepared to capture the Century Soup in Ice Hell, he summoned four of his insects, a Spew Weevil, an Armor Hoihoi, a Rock Bee and a Jam Grasshopper, to find and kill any other gourmet hunters that may be searching for the soup. All four beasts were eventually knocked out by Teppei.
