What he lacks in height, he makes up for in horizontal length however as his body has been likened by witnesses to be almost as long as a horse. However, the thing that tends to draw the eye when someone witnesses Ahn'Anak is the fact that he appears to be a human sized, alien spider like creature with 6 legs, two 'arms' which kind of look like legs and 8 large fully black eyes staring back at them. While a lot of his body is covered in a thick black fur, his skin/frame appear to be a sickly pale purple color.

[b]Produce Silk:[/b] Ahn'Anak can produce silk in both sticky and non-sticky varieties. He can even spit wads of it if need be, but he does prefer to craft nets. [b]Spider 'Senses':[/b] As a spider, Ahn'Anak is more... sensitive to touch, vibration and taste stimuli when it comes to navigating the world around him. However, while most spiders have poor eye-sight, the Ogre-Faced Spider is an exception. Not only does Ahn'Anak have good vision, but his night vision is greater then those of cats and owls. [b]Venomous:[/b] Ank'Anak produces two different substances that can be weaponized. One is a venom that causes paralysis, while the other is an acid that he uses to break down his food into a substance that he can drink. [/indent] [color=???][b]|[u] {Limitations} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent][b]Nocturnal:[/b] By his nature, Ank'Anak is nocturnal. While this normally isn't a problem, it does revel a major flaw with his otherwise amazing eyesight; Bright light is blinding to him. Operating in pure daylight (or somewhere brightly lit to the point of almost being daylight) requires he does so completely blind and counting on other senses. [b]Traditional Monster:[/b] Humanity has enough issues accepting different parts of itself; The recent rise of Metahumans is further proof of this. Ank'Anak [i]cannot[/i] operate in view of the public in general without causing widespread panic or confrontations because... well, he's not human. He doesn't even look human. Regardless of what origins the average viewer can come up with, Ank'Anak is generally not something they want to see coming out of the shadows. [b]Food is Power:[/b]In order to produce silk, Ank'Anak needs to eat. As a spider, he eats meat. As a giant spider, your standard insects doesn't do it anymore. As an awakened being through, he has made a point not to eat anything with true intelligence or is owned. Thus far, he has been feeding off of the bird and stray animal populations. [/indent] [hr.] [color=???][b]|[u] {Personality} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent] Ank'Anak is a quiet individual. This is less because of personal choice and more because of necessity; He doesn't have many people to talk to, so actual social interactions are rare to say the least. This is not helped by the fact that when Ank'Anak talks, not only is his english poor and accented, but talking actually goes against his base instincts when it comes to communicating with others since scent is naturally what his ancestors used. Humans didn't communicate knowingly through scent... at least not in the same way. Ank'Anak has picked up the habit of talking to himself when he's alone and there's no one else around, both to fill the lonely silence and practice talking in general. Humanity is a fascinating thing to Ank'Anak. Since his awakening, he couldn't help but notice the world that humans have created for themselves and desired to understand them. It isn't strange for Ank'Anak to slip into a closed public library or bookstore at night and just... read what he finds. Ank'Anak has difficulty with understanding the concept of fiction in general since the idea of creating a fictional setting and having stories there with little grounding in reality is rather new and tough to wrap ones head around... but Non-Fiction science books are a treasure that Ank'Anak tends to 'borrow' and line his lair with. While largely ignorant of human society and laws, Ank'Anak does actually have a fairly strong grasp of right and wrong behavior. This higher intelligence often comes into conflict with more basic instincts though because... well, the ethics themselves are fundamentally human in nature and imposed on his mind as a side effect of his awakening. As such, he doesn't actually understand [i]why[/i] something is morally right or wrong, but he does know that certain things make him feel terrible and others make him feel content and pleased. The only person in Ank'Anak's life is his mistress and 'former' owner Maggie. She was the one who blessed him with self awareness and intelligence, as well as cared for him and took steps to ensure that he was well fed and had somewhere safe to call his lair. He is devoted to her and her well being, with her recent disappearance being a cause of great concern for Ank'Anak. He is completely committed to finding and recovering her.[/indent] [color=???][b]|[u] {Place of Origin} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Once, Ank'Anak (or Weaver as he was called) was nothing more then an ordinary ogre faced spider. The world he lived in was comfortable, with food appearing regularly. This was because he was a pet, kept in a terrarium and looked after by his owner Maggie. Maggie was a sweet girl who was very much into the idea of the occult and magic, but most people just believed it was a high school student phase. It would have been... had magic not manifested for her. The discovery of magic changed Maggie. While at first she was only focused on what it could do for her, with time and guidance from her favorite aunt she learned that she could now influence the world for the better and sort to do so. While she was practicing her witchcraft Maggie accidentally 'awoke' her pet spider, giving Ank'Anak human levels of awareness and intelligence, alongside her sense of morality. Ank'Anak's reaction to this change was... conflicted. On the one hand, the gift of true intelligence and awareness of the world was something his mistress had bestowed upon him and he was deeply thankful for it but... on the other hand, he was still just a small spider. There wasn't exactly much he could do to help her with anything other then offer encouragement. Things changed again a few months down the line. Humans are human centered when it comes to their thought process; When a wave of dark matter washed over the world, they only really focused on the effect that it had on humans. Humans however, were not the only ones affected. If Ank'Anak was just lucky or if the magic that had awoken him had acted as a beacon for change is unknown, but when the tide washed over him his body was twisted into a new shape. Within a week, he had grown so big he needed to be moved to a larger terrarium. A month he was the size of a cat. After three months he was as big as a large dog and his owner Maggie had to move out to the outskirts of the city in order for him to have a new home with big enough food for him to eat. Six months after the dark matter changed him, Maggie went out one day and... didn't come back. While her disappearing for work, social or magical reasons wasn't uncommon, after a couple of days Ank'Anak started to feel something had gone wrong and that his master needed his help.[/indent] [color=???][b]|[u] {Background} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]A history of your character showing important events in their past.[/indent][/hider]
