The Piper is a Veer-myn whose affinity for the lesser vermin makes the other Veer-myn nervous
Biography
Very little is known about Veer-myn culture. Corporate and Council authorities view the larger and more complex colonies as infestations, and deal with them as they would any other vermin. As such, GCPS exobiologists rarely have any other data to gather than the smoking ruins of emptied nests and the eye witness accounts of Corporation Troopers.
Most of these accounts are suspect, tinged with emotion, and come from untrained eyes. Most could not discern the difference between the average Veer-myn than they could one pig from a herd.
But there is the sighting of one individual which pops up consistently from one conflict on Exham IV to another. The accounts tell of a Veer-myn; sleeker and healthier than most; who stalks the battlefield with no fear. It directs the Tide of vermin, using them like a weapon. At his direction vermin erupt from vents and gratings, fall from ceiling ducts onto the Troopers below, clawing at their eyes and biting at gaps between armour.
Often this Veer-myn will follow his minions into combat, falling on the distracted troopers with knives and teeth. The vermin swarm over his body, acting as a living ablative armour to the shots and blows which come its way, only to replenish and surge toward the shot’s source to wreak terrible vengeance.
The troopers have dubbed this Veer-myn The Piper after a folk tale of Old Earth. A tale which has come to terrible life on the streets of Exham.
