Personal history

Arachne was born an Aeonian before the race ascended. She ascended along with her family as a young woman. This new life quickly bored her. 

Longing to help others, she searched for ways to do so. She sought out the best teachers to learn from in this new eternal life. Always skilled at weaving, after ascension she took her skill to the next level and exceeded everyone else's abilities. 

After visiting the "deities" in the nearby regions, she found no one filling the niche that she wished to work in. Finding a lesser goddess that wished to retire, she took over her domains and few followers. She took the name of Arachne and became a goddess in her own right.
