The Arachnarok Spider is a colossal arachnid revered as a living god by the Forest Goblin tribes of the Orc and Goblin tribes. Ancient beyond reckoning and grown to monstrous size in the deep jungles and dark forests, these titanic spiders are venerated, fed with sacrifices, and coaxed into war by the goblins who dwell in their shadow.
Atop the Arachnarok's bristling carapace the Forest Goblins lash crude platforms, from which they hurl spears and loose arrows while the beast itself tears through the enemy with fanged maw and crushing legs. Few creatures inspire such terror on the battlefield, for the Arachnarok combines the raw destructive power of a monster with the cunning malice of its goblin masters.
Sacred to the spider-worshipping cults, the greatest of these beasts are entwined with dark ritual, their bites laced with lethal venom. To face an Arachnarok in the gloom of the forest is to confront one of the most fearsome living things in the Old World.
