BACKGROUND: Arantulas are spiders that live in the Pit of 100 trials but also in some rare caves. They live in groups and hunt in the night, but they sleep during the day. Arantulas were once said to be cursed spiders; if an Arantula bit you, it was said you would die 10 seconds after the bite. But today we know that Arantulas aren't poisonous and that they aren't cursed spiders, although they may still be dangerous.
OTHER BACKGROUND INFO:
"That's an Arantula. It's a spider-like creature that lives deep underground. It'll spit web-wads at you. Sometimes it even attacks several times in a row. That coloring freaks me out. ...I'm kinda scared of spiders. So let's do this quickly!!"
