Heavy bodied insect-like humanoids roughly 4 to 6 feet in height. Scorpids and Arachnids have a natural affinity for one another and are commonly seen together.

The same cannot be said for cooperating with the other races. With a reputation for violence, they are downright nasty to everyone else.

They have a hard carapace that grows stronger as they age. Their carapace makes it difficult for them to wear many types of armor. Cloth and leather are common but anything else is virtually impossible for them to maneuver in.

Their hard carapace more than compensates for their inability to wear heavy rigid armor. Arachnids have a powerful bite and the ability to shoot sticky webbing at their target to impede their movement.

It is not unheard of to see them living within a city but it is rare. Members of this race are nomads, most at home on the outskirts of civilization and prefer harsh, dry desert climates.

They have a tendency to be violent especially against outsiders or those not of their race. Their preferred habitat often puts them at odds over territory with the Lizard Folk and the Draconids or anyone else that also chooses the Great Wastelands as their home.

Arachnids are highly immune to arcane magic, they are natural mage killers. Although they have no particular affinity or loyalty to their creators, they were created by Banach and Morsash to create havoc among the mages and cause grief for Selorna; they have been instilled with a natural hatred against arcane spell casters but mages in particular.

Ironically, they are not able to be mages themselves. It is usually sound advice for arcane spell casters not to travel alone through lands known to contain members of this race. When a mage must travel through Arachnid territory, hiring mercenary guards is a common practice.
