Latest Info on Atoraru Ka (Info comes from Nintendo Dream Magazine)


 * Atoraru Ka was based on the Idolomantis diabolica (Devil's Flower Mantis). This particular species was chosen to show her divine beauty and mystery.
 * She was also designed after Egyptian culture.
 * Atoraru Ka are considered highly intelligent by insect standards. Atoraru Ka have also been found to be active learners.
 * In older times, Atoraru Ka would use stones, wood, and other other natural materials to build Atoraru Nesto. Due to humans developing and using other materials, such as metal and special equipment, Atoraru Ka has adapted to this sudden change. Atoraru Ka are now known to raid fortresses, and other places, since the equipment and metals made by humans are much stronger than the natural materials they once used.
 * Atoraru Ka like making their Atoraru Nesto out of the best materials they could possibly find. In more recent times, the materials crafted by humans are much stronger than the natural ones found in nature.
 * The concept behind Atoraru Nesto came from the developers observing certain species that have been recently seen using man-made materials, such as crows building nest out of hangars.
 * The Atoraru Nesto, seen in-game, was incomplete. The Atoraru Ka at the Old Fortress Ruins was still building, meaning that the Atoraru Nesto could've been bigger and more stable if she had finished.
 * The Hunter's Guild estimate that the finished Atoraru Nesto would've been twice as big, dwarfing the incomplete one.
