I'm pretty sure you encounter in in science fiction as well, where some bug like alien has a carapace or a soldier has some armored exo-skeleton described by the word. Though I cannot think of any specific examples.
- myrmidon 2y agoQuite common in videogames, too. A specific example would be the Carapace (armor) upgrades in Starcraft 2 (one faction, the Zerg, are basically insects). Also sometimes used for (humanoid) armor crafted from shells (fantasy settings). I think this is MUCH more prevalent in scifi/fantasy targeted at male audiences, and the data confirms it [1] [1]: https://osf.io/g4xrt/# https://osf.io/g4xrt/#!
