OMG IT’S A SPIDER! And no I was not on crack. This was spawned 'cuz I like spiders and I thought one needed claws...

It’s an arachnid, and a damn big one too. Razor-sharp claws, a frozen web, sharp fangs, a potent poison, speed, and a high resistance to cold are its strengths, but it fears fire above all else. It’s another carnivore (Yay! :w00t!: ) but, again, it is nameless. Latin name is "Venenifer glacialis aranea" and common name is the daemon spider (Lame I know)

The spider itself is the size of a Great Dane dog, and those are just the hatchings; a fully grown female is usually the size of a Clydesdale horse. Basically...one big spider. The females are always bigger then the males, as with most spiders, and thus are more aggressive. Its webs are strong and large to compensate, and are frozen cold to the touch, which works to trap their prey just as well as the sticky threads, although its webs are less clingy. Its front claws, the biggest ones (As seen in the pic XD) are one of its most formidable weapons, able to crush bones if it gets it’s fabled "death grip" on you. Not an easy feat, and leaves the spider weakened, but a powerful strike indeed. It is fast when threatened or on its web, but cannot go fast at long distances, for it will tire easily, relying on the tactic of surprise and hitting hard to catch its prey. Its red eyes can be seen glittering in the dark, and its abdomen is one of its trademark features, namely the pattern upon it. The markings, usually in the shape of a daemonic twisted face, glow fiercely by some unknown means to intimidate its enemies. The more intricate and haunting the face, generally the stronger the spider. It will eat any sorts of meat, even its own kind, but will never eat plants or berries. Ever. It lives a solo life except for mating, the young hatching from the egg sacks completely alone and have to fend for themselves from the start. A thick layer of hair covers its body as isolation from the cold, but underneath that is an exoskeleton like all spiders, albeit weaker to any sort of fire then most. Found mainly in dark, dank caves in any sort of snow-covered land, it is a fierce opponent to face.

Wheeeeee! Did you enjoy the other ramble? There’s more! On other creatures though ;P Anyway....this was fun to draw and write. Seriously. I'm proud of this wee little bugger. And I hope you like it too!

Everything you see or read here belongs to me. And if anyone steals this they will DIE! M'kay? If you wanna use this, all ya gotta do is ask me...

(Also, some of you may recognize this thing...)
