Couldn't find the animated gif I was looking for of a spider in a top hat/cane dancing, but I did find these.

Don't tell anyone that you can see their shadows. If they hear you telling anyone, if you let them know that you know of them, they will get you.

Who knows, maybe there is a pack of them wandering around somewhere out of sight.

Currently, the first mayor of my fort has been elected following a goblin ambush in which he fought bravely, bearing the sacrs from a previous ambush where he had been shot with crossbow bolts and never really healed properly. His name, however, is in goblin. Why is this you ask? Well...the mayor is a giant cave spider. As a result of giving him [CAN_LEARN] to increase their effectiveness and off er easy counseling to my dwarves, it seems that GCS became electable officials. I am eagerly awating his first mandate. I hope it involves the budding child population of the fort, the caverns, and floodgates.



this does not surprise me that he was elected to fulfill such a position! spiders are well known for their helpful disposition*; and with 8 legs, spider hugs would likely be the best hugs.

*actually true! I was talking with a friend recently and we stumbled onto australian aboriginal lore about spiders (for some reason)! they are apparently the go-to people when you have a problem. if a spider offered to help me with my problems, I would likely be able to only answer it in one long, unending scream.

apologies for the poorly drawn spider haha.

You will not get mandates.

Heh, but I can dream can't I? Looks Like I can't give him an office either.

I can see it now, a huge spider in an office waiting for diplomats to arrive and pay him a visit.

GCS nobles don't need offices.  They require parlors.

That is the reason they keep digging deeper and deeper. To find out what is down there.
