The araknorok is a divine creation meant to terminate the lands, spreading destruction wherever it walks in the form of natural disasters. While not evil, it obeys the task unerringly, sending off tsunamis, volcanoes, tornadoes, quakes, and more across the lands. It can speak in loud booms of one-to-one godly voice, and physically resembles a long-legged spider, with a floating sphere above containing various elementals. In combat, the araknorok crushes enemies with its fangs, piercing skulls. When injured, it conjures elements from its globe, spewing water, lava, tremors, and tornadoes. When defeated, it unleashes the primal forces of the various elementals inside it and, in a final bout of strength, melts into the earth, merging with its surroundings. Araknoroks are commonly found only when a great treachery is committed on the globe, and when said treachery happens, they are deployed in said spot by whatever god summoned them to wreak havoc.
