Spheres: Coasts, Victory, Minerals, Weather, Birth, Fate
Description: In a cavern off of the Sea of the Iron Bones lurks the Arilnul, the Titanic spider from beyond this world. Though its body takes a form vaugely like a man, its chitinous hide of unnatural material, razor-barbed spines and thirteen glowing eyes betray it as something not made for this world. Some say that the monster drifted onto shore one night on a broken ship of unearthly metal. Some say a crew of ghosts sailed up from the Underworld to release the beast upon the world. Some say it was once a brave sailor, cursed by the Gods for some unspeakable crime. None know the horrible truth...
Powers: It is said that the Arilnul has command over the weather in the Sea of the Iron Bones, and that it is the monster that causes all that dare enter those cursed waters to grow steely knobs of some impossibly hard of metal on their bones.
