| - The Army Ants are two species of sapient, venomous humanoid army ants, known for opposing one another. Unlike other ants, the abdomens of most species have become ampules of power (ampolla della forza), transparent and glittery and somehow tying into their 'power' (presumably their sapience). It is unknown how their abdomens developed into this. The only army to completely lack these ampules of power are the orange ants; their direct rivals, the blue ants, have at least half of their population with these ampules, indicating that the evolution is most likely a recent adaptation.

| - The Army Ants are two species of sapient, venomous humanoid army ants, known for opposing one another. Unlike other ants, the abdomens of most species have become ampules of power (ampolla della forza), transparent and glittery and somehow tying into their 'power' (presumably their sapience). It is unknown how their abdomens developed into this. The only army to completely lack these ampules of power are the orange ants; their direct rivals, the blue ants, have at least half of their population with these ampules, indicating that the evolution is most likely a recent adaptation. The ant species are all known for being power-hungry, highly trained and extremely rotten, these foul little insects seek to devour everything while taking their enemies by force. Known army ant species include the blue, orange, black, gray, green, pink, and white. All armies except for the orange army also possess rare transparent ants, although the existence of these ants is not understood; it may have something to do with a stronger level of ampule power, however. Despite this, the blue and orange armies appear to be the most powerful, and the other armies have allied themselves alongside these two: Green and White have allied with Blue, while Black, Gray, and Pink have allied with Orange. Given their power-hungry status, these are likely no more than alliances of convenience. Armies seem to be far smaller than regular army ant colonies, and seem to only consist of around 40 known members, segmented into squadrons of three to eight members, although they have also been recorded singularly, and in groups of 4 and 14. No known queens have been discovered, and instead they follow the commands of generals.
