Once the best human weaver, Arachne was cursed by being transformed into her present form: half-human, half-spider. No longer ageing, she has the youth and beauty of a human female, along with the legs and abdomen of a monstrous giant spider.

Thousands years old, she has learned magic and quite a few other tricks. Expect to be ensnared by webs and magic while her pets digest and then drink you dry.

Useful Info

Arachne is a unique half-spider caster who wields a staff of poison, and likes to ensnare you in webs while she and her spider allies heavily poison you.
