Description
Arachnians are a diverse species of sentient Arachnids. They can have body designs and colorations consistent with that of their various spider ancestors. When interacting with humanoids Arachnians often walk and dress in a very particular way, so as to make arachnophobes more comfortable and make integration more fluid. They will walk using 4 of their legs, each walking and dressed in pairs as if they were humanoid legs. For whatever reason, this combined with clothing is enough to ease any discomfort associated with spider-like creatures.
Society
Arachnians tend to have diverse societies that can often be directly linked to the behavior of the spider ancestors. For instance; solitary spider descendants tend to form smaller tighter knit communities such as families or clans, while more social spider descendants are more prone to form larger governments and city states.
