The City will insist on obliging us to keep a minimum of two wardrobes. I may as well appreciate having more options for concealed carry than usual.

What do you know, from experience or mythology, of insectile or similar creatures that prey on humans?

More than I care to know, though most of it comes from planets far, far away.

How much chance of your knowledge having practical applications here?

Maybe in a general sense. Each species I've run in to has been different in terms of purpose and method of dispatch.

Though I did have a run in with a were spider while I was here in the City but she's been gone for awhile now.

What I dealt with wasn't female. Is there a likelihood that she had companions?

No.

She only had a brother and he left before she did.

Which leaves us back where we've started. The folklore in my own world is too expansive to narrow the possibilities save for eliminating figures who were clearly female.

New resident of the City?

Possibly. I do know that he's hungry.

I'm guessing this is from a personal run in? Was he capable of speech as we know it? A lot of the 'bugs' I've come across communicate in a much higher pitch then our own tones.

He spoke with a human tone, though his motivations ... I hesistate to classify them as human or nonhuman without further information.

That sounds more like were'beast' like than a genetically pure species.

Werebeasts are genetically pure species in my world, but your point still stands.

Good point, I mean a hybrid. Anybody around here you can think of who would be interested in creating such a thing?

How many mad scientists at last count?

Are we talking the ones who are arrogant enough to announce their intentions or the ones flying below the radar like true sociopaths should?

Both. It might yet be too early for grand declarations of megalomania.
