Argiope was the runner-up of the 3rd Design Contest, designed by 'VAX'.

Bio[]

Argiopes are giant spider-like Monsters with a distinctive exoskeleton that is made of silver. Because of their calculating and patient nature, Argiopes usually bide their time and wait for their prey to come to them. Argiopes spread tiny invisible threads throughout their territories that alert them of any trespasser. Once alerted, Argiopes will silently stalk their target and ambush them at just the right moment. They possess small wing-like limbs on their back, which allow them to redirect their jumps in mid-air. Thanks to this ability, as well as their excellent vision and split-second reactions, it's almost impossible to escape from an Argiope. If need be, Argiopes can also throw their webs like a net to immobilize their foes.

History[]

In the Old World, Argiopes were found in dense forests and open caves, far from human civilisation. Argiopes are able to foresee their prey's actions thanks to being attuned with the nature around them. Therefore, they are very sensitive to human interference, since it disrupts the natural processes of their surroundings. In the Sanctuary, Argiopes adapted to the gloomy atmosphere of Underworld, since it's very rare for Monster Keepers to set foot there.

Acquisition[]
