Trivia

Origin

Rabsca appears to be based on a scarab beetle, particularly resembling the sacred scarab. The females are known to lay one large egg inside a dung ball which the larva then feeds on. It may also be based on Khepri, an Egyptian scarab-faced god who represents the rising or morning sun, and by extension, also creation and the renewal of life.

Name origin

Rabsca may be derived from scarab with the syllables transposed.

Berakasu may be derived from スカラベ sukarabe (scarab) spelled in revers.
