There is a cave, hidden deep in the forests, that is said by many of the locals to be haunted. Anyone who ventures into them -- cave crawlers, curious campers, teenagers on a dare -- is simply swallowed up, never to be seen again. Nobody knows the reason for this, except for those who do disappear... and, of course, they never return to tell the tale, such is their fate upon entering the cave.<br/><br/>Within the cave is a deep pothole, leading to a much vaster network of subterranean caves and tunnels. These caves and tunnels are home to a strange species called “arachne”; bizarre hybrids of human girl and giant spider. With the torsos of beautiful young girls sticking centaur-like out of huge spider bodies, the arachne's appearance belies their grim nature and even grimmer diet. They feed on fresh meat -- more specifically, human meat.<br/><br/>The walls and floors of the caves underneath are covered in thick web, where dozens of cocoons line the walls, their occupants completely encased from head to toe. There's no movement from them, other than a muffled moan and an occasional twitch. When the arachne get hungry, they simply feed off of a cocoon of their choice, injecting it with venom to liquefy their meal's bones and organs, before puncturing the cocoon and filling their bellies with fresh human soup.<br/><br/>Dana, a young arachne of about fifteen years, is currently resting in her nest, sleeping off her latest meal, her black widow body curled up in a ball as she sighs and relaxes.<br/><br/>(Need people to play both prey and arachne.
