An '''Arachne''' is a large black and yellow arachnid with three red eyes and an egg-like in their back. It is named for [[wikipedia:Arachne|Arachne]], the Greek goddess of spiders. They resided in [[Rose Way]] during the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Arachnes are very powerful and have an enormously high defense rating (as compared to [[Mario]] and his party when they are first encountered). As such, these spiders can be a serious threat to adventurers. Despite being so strong, Arachnes never attack on their own; they always aid other monsters and are never seen outside of battle. During a confrontation, an Arachne attacks by gouging its victim with its deadly fangs. The spider monster also knows the special attack [[Venom Drool]], which allows it to poison the opponent. Although physically strong, Arachnes are quite susceptible to most magic attacks.
