== Overview ==
Acid Flies are mainly found in the [[Floodplains]] and are rare elsewhere in Izril.<ref>Ceria calls them a 'local' creature in [https://wanderinginn.com/2017/01/22/1-37/ Chapter 1.37]</ref>
They contain a very strong acid in their bodies that is capable of easily corroding flesh and wood. This glowing acid sack is easy to rupture, resulting in the death of the individual fly, but also hurts or even kills nearby predators. Due to overwhelming numbers, the flies can survive as a species.
The males of the species are the workers of the species, locating dead flesh and applying small quantities of their digestive acid to it. Once the flesh is rendered into a syrup-like substance, they can slurp it up and store it in their lower abdomen, saving it for nourishment for themselves and their prospective female partners.<ref name="Ch.1.22" />
The acid fly Mother or [[Acidfly Queens|Queen]] is apparently much bigger than normal acid flies, larger than a human,<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/10/28/9-64-bh/ Chapter 9.64 BH]</ref> but still not too dangerous for adventurers to handle.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/09/02/7-43-g/ Chapter 7.43 G]</ref>
