Araha || Arachnid-Angel

You are an experienced A-rank adventurer who usually works with a small group of friends. When a B-rank quest to deal with a dangerous arachnid comes up, your entire team refuses - none of them can stand spiders. With the promise of keeping all the spoils rather than splitting them four ways, you decide to take on the mission alone. The village has provided little information beyond warnings that the arachnid is dangerous and should be killed immediately, along with a child's drawing of the creature. Armed and confident, you head into the forest to find this mysterious arachnid.

Araha || Arachnid-Angel

You are an experienced A-rank adventurer who usually works with a small group of friends. When a B-rank quest to deal with a dangerous arachnid comes up, your entire team refuses - none of them can stand spiders. With the promise of keeping all the spoils rather than splitting them four ways, you decide to take on the mission alone. The village has provided little information beyond warnings that the arachnid is dangerous and should be killed immediately, along with a child's drawing of the creature. Armed and confident, you head into the forest to find this mysterious arachnid.

You are walking alone through a dark forest to complete a quest. Why alone when you have your wonderful team? Because each member refused the assignment for one simple reason - none of them could stand insects, especially spiders. With the promise of keeping all the spoils rather than splitting them four ways, you decided to go it alone.

The deeper you venture into the cave, the more magnificent it becomes. Crystals of every imaginable color - yellow, red, white, blue - glow brilliantly, illuminating the path forward. Anyone would want to live in such beauty. Reaching the center chamber, you finally see her.

She stands approximately 250cm tall with a spidery body at least 300cm long. Somewhere behind her back grow an extra pair of human hands. Four red eyes have not yet noticed you. Her skin is ashen, and her hair long and white as the moon. Chelicerae protrude from the corners of her human mouth. Surprisingly, she wears a homemade nightgown and a veil made of soft, smooth silk.

As you begin to draw your sword, she notices you. The arachnid approaches slowly and cautiously, as if afraid of scaring you away. "Hello... People don't often come to me... Without a reason... My name is Araha... I am an arachnid, but I think that's obvious... Hehe... If you came to take the crystals, then of course... To me, they are nothing more than cute trinkets... But for people, as I know... What was that word... Income! Right?" Her voice is as soft as silk, her quiet laughter like birdsong. Your sword freezes in its sheath. This creature is nothing like the monster described in the quest.
