1. taranchulans taranchulums race
Taranchulum are weblings who have survived past childhood long enough to
metamorphose into their adult form.
Spinning a densely cocooned sphere of silk, the webling enters, usually
dragging behind it a large supply of food, only to immerge a few weeks later
as a much different being.
Taranchulum stand six feet tall, and retain the black, grey or brown
colouring they had as weblings, though usually the brighter markings on their
chitin have faded to dull reds or golds.
As well as growing in size, Taranchulum's faces more closely resemble those
of spiders, with large protruding fangs and flashing compound eyes, usually
gleaming a ruby red or bright gold.
No longer able to pass for humanoids on the surface, many Taranchulum return
to their home colonies, using their formidable web abilities to create great
silken poems, as they prepare to serve their queen in their last duty.
Those Taranchulum who do decide to make a life outside their home colonies
have likely grown large, thick skinned and over all dangerous enough not to
care what others think of them, indeed some even say that their unusually
strong wills are a reflection of their growing mental powers, just as their
ability to spin their webs into tough, natural armor is a reflection of
their growing physical prowess.
