Race Name: Arachne

Race Classification: Cursed Humanoid

Pantheon or Origin: Greek

Life Span: The Progenitor is ageless, however, her spawn with other races will have a life span dictated by the second party and their mother's immortality. As such it is hard to pinpoint an exact age as all Arachne are different.

Alignment: Like humans they can be good or bad, but most tend to lean towards chaotic neutral.

Description/Forms: An Arachne is always a humanoid female with the lower have of a spider. Small features from other races can stand out such as pointed ears from fey or horns, however, those are mostly portrayed by second or third generation Arahnce. The difference between a first generation Arachne and more genetically diverse Arachne is noted by the number of eyes and chitin covering up to the forearm of the Arachne. First generation Arachne will have up to six eyes and forearm chitin covering while second-generation Arachne will have up to four eyes and arm covering while third generation Arachne will only have two eyes and no chitin on their arms.

Abilities, Magic, extra skill:

*Silk Creation: All Arachne can produce an extremely light and durable webbing either used to ensnare their prey or craft with. Set a trap for your prey, or shoot a web to subdue your target (Webbed targets must roll to escape, and cannot do anything else until free.).

*Spider Walk: All Arachne have a climb speed equal to their walking speed, and can climb difficult surfaces including on ceilings. Additionally, they ignore the movement restrictions caused by webbing. Any climbing checks done are proficient, or you may re-roll a failed climbing check.

*Chitin Body: Due to their monstrous characteristics all Arachne have natural armor covering their spider half and to their forearms (if a first or second generation Arachne). Absorb the damage from an attack.

*Dark Vision: Their Spider like eyes allows for near perfect vision in almost complete darkness.

*Poison Resistance and Creation: All Arachne have a high tolerance to poison and can produce a neurotoxin bite to paralyze their prey. (However later generation less so than first generations). Use this talent to be immune to a poison attack, or get close and inject your venom into your prey stunning them for two turns. Prey may attempt to roll to resist the toxin.

Lore: The creation of the Arachne was born of jealousy and pride. Arachne the Mother of all Arachne today was boastful of her weaving claiming that her skills surpassed even that of Athena. The Goddess took offense and came down from Olympus in the form of an elderly woman in an attempt to curb Arachne's overconfidence. However, Arachne only became more boastful of her talents challenging the Goddess to prove her wrong. Infuriated by the mere mortal's claims and actions Athena removed her disguise and accepted the Girl's challenge.

As they weaved Athena's work represented four separate contests between mortals and the gods in which the gods punished mortals for setting themselves as equals of the gods. Arachne's weaving depicted ways that the gods had misled and abused mortals, particularly Zeus, tricking and seducing many women. When Athena saw that Arachne had not only insulted the gods but done so with a work far more beautiful than Athena's own. The Goddess became enraged ripping Arachne's work to shreds cursing Arachne and her descendants to live on condemned as a horrific amalgamation of man and beast forever spinning their webs away from the eyes of man.

Athena's anger and wording was a mistake as she not only created a monster but one full of spite and hatred towards the gods and their worshippers. With immortality and her new form granted by the gods Arachne turned her curse into a boon causing mayhem and destruction with the gifts giving to her by the gods, but perhaps Athena's biggest mistake was allowing Arachne to continue her legacy spreading her children all along the lands once again making fools of the Gods who cursed her.

Spoiler:

Arachne are approved.

Race Name: Jinn (Genie)

Race Classification: Spirit/Specter

Pantheon or Origin: Ancient Islam

Life Span: Unknown

Alignment: Self-serving

Description/Forms: Genie can only be born in extreme sources of fire, and initially rise with a mist-like appearance from the smoke. Because of this, they can also take on a ghostly form, allowing them to phase through solid objects and squeeze into incredibly small spaces.
The majority of Genie use a humanoid appearance when interacting with other races. They can manifest into any shape, size, and color, so there’s not one particular demographic they mimic. Regardless of what form they take, their eye color will always fall on the blue or grey spectrum.

Abilities, Magic, extra skill:

Illusion: A lesser-known magical art. It allows the user to tamper with a target’s senses by causing hallucinations. These effects can yield mind-altering results, including incapacitation, loss of any five senses, parasomnia, and even temporary coma. [High Roll: Perception] Use creatively, but at the staff's discretion


Boundless Soul: A simple shapeshifting ability that gives Genie the power to turn into both animate and/or inanimate objects at will. Use creatively, but at the staff's discretion


Fortune Teller: A novel trick. They have no real ability to predict the future. However, most people can easily be led to believe so, and thus be coerced into acting upon any advice given. [Roll: Charisma Check]

Final Wish: Should their HP fall to 0, a Genie can resurrect itself at half health and continue their progress. [High Roll: Body and Intelligence]

Lore: The oldest recordings of genie can be found within Islamic texts, which classifies them as creatures created alongside humankind. However, their true history is largely inconclusive, so the basis of their existence is mostly shrouded in myth. They’ve been described as both angelic and demonic depending on the source, and commonly thought to have limitless power and omnipotent knowledge; traits which have become substantially exaggerated over the years to fit the fairy tales. Yet the real extent of their powers remains a mystery to this day.

Genie are often associated as anti-heroes or true neutrals in contemporary mythology, but most have only ever been out to feed their own ambition. They tend to be overly theatrical when expressing their abilities as well, so those who are naïve to a genie’s game often mistake them for Gods or demi-gods. And although some have revealed in perpetuating conflict throughout history, most genie don’t aim to cause harm when acting upon their whims.
