Name: Scri'erk
Alias/Nicknames: Ol' fat spider, Trapmaster, webmaster
Race: Giant cave Arachnid (Gaint monstrous spider-like bugs used by drow or found sprawling the Underdark. They have long pedipalps for grabbing, mandibles for injecting venom, and a long, thin stinger tail. Combined with a hard carapace and webs, these predators are no pushover! Fortunately, they lack good vision, relying on a very weak tremor sense and primitive eyes. Additionally, they are very combustible, suffering from a vulnerability to fire. 
Gender: ♀
Background: Scri'erk was born in the wild, dangerous, Underdark amongst dozens of siblings. She scurried off as to not be eaten by her bigger siblings or her mother. Time in the caves was boring and lonely, and those few she met were often trying to kill her or vice versa. When she found Everdark, things were different. Food was more abundant than she could ever imagine. She spent her time lurking the caves and mapping its labyrinthian design in her head. Her mind brimmed with questions about what this once was, and as she reached maturity she set up a couple of webs near the entrance.

As the years went on, she would catch plentiful prey: from adventurers to beast to other denizens of the ruins. In time she became known as a barrier from the outside, as her webs alone made any who dared enter the cave easy pickings. Age came with wisdom and though only a decade old, she was already branching out in her trap design. Some of the more pitiful monsters began giving her offers and soon she became a go-to when looking for help warding off enemies. Just hope she isn't too hungry!

Personality: Scri'erk is an odd person. Stoic, but genuine, she is mostly just a silent observer at times. When she has to talk she is blunt and straightforward. She isn't one who relies of others and openly dislikes any association with anyone. That said, she isn't against the occasional idle chat here and there.

What makes Scri'erk so odd is that she does not have to restrain her primal needs: specifically hunger. She has to be constantly reminded not to eat her friends, and may an offering has ended with someone covered in webbing until she remembers not to eat them. Scri'erk is driven mostly by survival instincts and it shows.

Scri'erk likes exploring and fighting, as they are most of what she does these days. Her biggest fear is fire, it takes all the monstrous nature she had right out of her and turns her into a squealing little girl. Similarly, drow has a tendency to unnerve her, since they often take her kind.
