Unofficial Description: Cave crickets are lion-sized crickets that inhabit caves and other underground environs. They are a ghostly white color and prefer mushrooms. If disturbed, they will chirp loudly, potentially drawing the attention of more dangerous creatures. If attacked, they will defend themselves until they can escape. Cave crickets are amphibious, able to exist in or out of the water.
