Arachnians

First encountered in the lair of Aram-Dol in Ultima VII Part Two: Serpent Isle, Arachnians are among the many deadly guardians of Serpent's Fang.

In years past, by means of the blackest sorcery, the arch-liche took many of his human prisoners and fused their torsos with the bodies of Giant Spiders. Cunning and fearsome fighters, these grotesque half-breeds are known to eat their prey alive. They are also fond of shooting their foes at range with magic arrows. Thankfully, they possess a natural vulnerability to fire.

Luckily, Arachnians are rarely encountered off the Serpent Isle.
