Bothrios

Bothrios (a.k.a. The Weaver, Fate, The Spinner)

“Oh no, you came out all this way,” the spider said in a lilting tone that felt too friendly. “You must want something from here? Right?” Bothrios being presented with a lost soul.

Divine Symbols & Sigils

Spiders have long been seen as his wards and servants. Legend says they send him messages in the ways they spin their webs, and that is how he knows all that happens.

Physical Description

Body Features

Some described him as being half spider in the way that his lower body was that of an arachnid, while others say he was simply a humanoid with two legs and six arms. All stories attest to his having eight large eyes, spread out above a heavy set of long fangs. His body was covered in coarse dark hair, the ends of his fingers were clawed and able to grip tough surfaces, and some say that he could even spin his own silk.

Physical quirks

He had the habit of quirking his head to the side dramatically and at random. His mouth was such that he always looked as if he were grinning, and it could never really close all the way thanks to his fangs. His fingers always twitched unless he held them still for a wandering spider.

Special abilities

Bothrios had the power to influence fate. He knew that certain events would happen, and could see briefly into the future. As such, he considered himself a master of destiny, able to play with certain elements and factors to sway the future however he wanted.

Mental characteristics

Sexuality

Unknown

Morality & Philosophy

His long life would have been an explanation for his lack of morals and selfish ways, but he was also just born that way. His only philosophy surrounded keeping himself and the dozens of spiders that made their homes alongside him in good standing. Thus, he kept himself cut off, confined to the Broken Wastes, and freely caused chaos or destruction whenever he wanted. He's been known to offer boons or help to strangers and lost souls, only to ultimately benefit himself. He never showed any remorse or care for anything but himself, even when it came to his brother.
