Wood Bees

Crafted by, I dunno, gnomes or something, the wood bees are tiny little bio-mechanical drone bees intricately carved from fine ebony and ivory woods and given life through dark magic. Dark bee magic. A willingly sacrificed bee soul is placed in the empty shell, giving it eternal life but shackling it into the services of the sorcerous bee who performed the ritual. These bees can attack repeatedly and their stings do not detach, instead using a pneumatic system to quickly inject a measured dose of whatever poison has been provided to them, usually something to induce sleep or cause necrosis.
