Overview
Rogue Arachnos is an enemy faction. They are commonly found in Warburg. Established as a splinter faction of Arachnos, they are actively opposed to the "softly, softly" approach taken by Marshal Brass. Given the threat that the rockets of Warburg present to the world, the Rogue Arachnos faction seek to use them to their fully capabilities as weapons. As a result, members of Arachnos are forced to choose: to support Marshall Brass and resist launching the rockets and thus potentially plunging the world in to thermonuclear war, or to use them as the threat and leverage to bend the world to the will of Lord Recluse?
Villain types
Underlings
Rogue Spiderling
These attack drones are used to soften up super-powered targets. Arachnos considers them very expendable, and uses them to record and monitor a threat's abilities before more expensive troops - such as Tarantulas or Forunatas - are deployed.
Powers
Chain Gun (Ranged, Lethal) Foe -Defense
Your Defense has been reduced by the Submachine Gun.
Full Auto Ranged, Lethal, High Damage over Time
You are being rattled by a Full Auto hit from an Assault Rifle.
Claw Melee, Moderate Damage, Lethal
You have been raked by a claw.
Minions
Rogue Mu Striker
Strikers are descendant of the long lost Mu, drafted into Arachnos service to fight both mystic heroes and the troublesome Circle of Thorns.
Rogue Crab Spider Slicer
Crab Spiders function much like SWAT teams in other cities, and are dispatched to deal with high-level threaths like super-types. They're equiped with full body armor, larger weapons and a set of mechanical spider arms that turn them into death-dealing machines.
Rogue Fortunata
Fortunatas are female Arachnos agents gifted with psychic powers. Those with aggressive abilities are tasked with taking down super-types, who often have little resistance to their deadly abilities.
Powers
Mental Blast Ranged, Psionic, Foe -Recharge
The basic psionic attack does moderate damage and can slightly reduce a target's attack speed.
No Melee attacks No Hand to Hand
Rogue Fortunatas don´t have any Melee attacks at all
Rogue Tarantula
The Tarantula Exoskeleton Armor was developed by an Orb Weaver cell named Weaver One. It grants the user incredible strength and wires him directly to his weapons systems. Rumor is that the pilot must undergo a terrible treatment of some sort to properly graft with the suit.
Powers
Venom Bolt (Ranged, Energy) Damage over Time (Toxic), Foe -Damage, -Recharge, -Fly
The poison is coursing through your system, making it difficult to fly.
Claw Shred (Melee) Cone, Moderate Damage, Lethal
You have been raked by a claw.
Claw Pierce (Melee) Moderate Damage, Lethal
You have been raked by a claw.
Armored Exoskeleton
Armored exoskeleton.
Rogue Fire Tarantula
The Tarantula Exoskeleton Armor was developed by an Orb Weaver cell named Weaver One. It grants the user incredible strength and wires him directly to his weapons systems. Rumor is that the pilot must undergo a terrible treatment of some sort to properly graft with the suit.
Powers
Plasma Cannon (Ranged) Damage over Time (Fire)
The Plasma Cannon has set you on fire and you are burning.
Burning Claws (Melee, Lethal/Fire) Damage over Time (Fire)
The Burning Claws have set you on fire.
Armored Exoskeleton
Armored exoskeleton.
Lieutenants
Rogue Mu Adept
The most gifted Mu strikers are given far more than promotions and new uniforms: they are given eldritch secrets to unlock their inner powers. As long as they continue to use them in Arachnos' service, of course.
Powers
Flight Self fly
Mu can Fly!
Lightning Bolt Ranged, High Damage (Energy), Foe -Endurance
You can send a large blast of electrical energy at a foe, dealing heavy damage and draining some of Endurance. Lightning Bolt deals more damage than Charged Bolts, but recharges more slowly. Damage: High. Recharge: Moderate.
Lightning Blast Ranged, High Damage (Energy), Foe -Endurance
A focused electrical blast that can travel great distancies with high Accuracy. Lightning Blast drains Endurance, and is best fired from a distance, as it can be interrupted. Damage: Extreme. Recharge: Slow.
Rogue Crab Spider Longfang
Crab Spiders function much like SWAT teams in other cities, and are dispatched to deal with high-level threaths like super-types. They're equiped with full body armor, larger weapons and a set of mechanical spider arms that turn them into death-dealing machines.
Rogue Tarantula Mistress
A rare few Fortunatas volunteer for the Tarantula program. Those who survive integration with the machine are truly terrors to behold. Their specially-designed suits greatly amplify their psychic abilities, allowing them to not only comunicate the next few seconds of time to their allies, but also to distort reality for their foes as well.
Bosses
Rogue Mu Guardian
Mu Guardians pulse with the blood of their slaughtered ancestors in their veins. They have read unholy tomes, visited other planes of existence and performed dark sacrifices too terrible to mention to become the masters of the mystic arts.
Rogue Wolf Spider Huntsman
The most brutal and effective members of the Wolf Spiders are eventually promoted to Huntsmen. They're armed and armored for many situations, so tread lightly when they are around.
Rogue Fortunata Mistress
The most powerful of the Fortunatas are the Mistresses. These rare few have mastered numerous psychic abilities and risen to the top of Lord Recluse's beautiful Black Widows.
Rogue Tarantula Queen
What terrible process pushes a woman to become one of these unholy terrors is a subject of much speculation. What is known is that their suits are little different from Tarantula Mistresses. Instead, it seems the user somehow suffers the upgrade. Tarantula Queens are incredibly powerful, but also quite mad.
Powers
Psychic Scream (Ranged, Cone, Psionic) Foe -Recharge
This howl of Psionic energy resonates in the minds of all foes within its conical area of effect, inflicting moderate damage.
Scramble Thoughts Ranged, Psionic, Foe Disorient
Painfully scrambles the synapses of a targeted foe, leaving him dramatically Disoriented for a short duration. Deals a little Psionic Damage.
Mind Link Team +Accuracy, +Perception
Your Accuracy and Perception is improved due to good teamwork and Leadership.
Armored Exoskeleton
Armored exoskeleton.
Rogue Toxic Tarantula
The Tarantula Exoskeleton Armor was developed by an Orb Weaver cell named Weaver One. It grants the user incredible strength and wires him directly to his weapons systems. Rumor is that the pilot must undergo a terrible treatment of some sort to properly graft with the suit.
