Arachnophobe

The Shadowed are a faction of the Outer Darkness, a dimension rife with unholy, dark aberrations. The Anax leads these creatures after he takes away their free will, minds, and souls. They are mostly found in the vibratory dimension of the Outer Darkness known as the Shadowlands, the lowest frequency of existence itself. In most cases, the victims (either corporeal or incorporeal) become twisted, evil versions of their old selves, retaining whatever knowledge they once held. However, in cases of phobia, the afflicted become mockeries of their intense fears. Thus, turning their fears into a strength and perverse joy.

Arachnophobes are shadowed, who irrationally feared spiders in life. When faced with the Anax or one of his minions, the victim was forced to watch themselves covered in crawling, biting spiderlings, until their minds broke and they exchanged their souls for peace. Like all shadowed, they have sharp, glowing claws and swarm with black ink-like shadows on their bodies. However, arachnophobes have bulbous spidery abdomens and six chitin, armored legs. They can spray their prey with shadowy webbing, climb any surface, and inject a glowing poison into the victim’s body who will then become a shadowed arachnophobe as well!
