The Spider Bracer was first sold as a pearlescent web-worked bracer at the Grand Auction of 5123. It houses spiders inside, which can be called upon in combat for the following effects:

  • WHISTLE: Call your spiders to free you from a web. Cooldown: 10 min
  • WAVE [AT]: Devour a web in the area or on another person. Cooldown: 2 min
  • POINT [AT]: Direct your spiders to launch webs at a target. Cooldown: 3 min
  • POKE: Frighten eligible targets with your spidery ways, staggering and slowing them. Cooldown: 5 min
  • RAISE [AT]: Send the spiders to your target, staggering them and causing creatures to drop any held items. Cooldown: 5 min

In addition to combat abilities, it comes with fluff verb traps, the ability to create a THROWable fluff web via COVER, and ambient messages that can be toggled via PROD. It will not function if a room is sancted.

Crimson-veined mirror spiders steadily stream out of your web-worked bracer, swinging en masse from whisper-thin draglines onto a weathered krolvin guide. The arachnid horde creeps over a weathered krolvin guide like a moving, many-legged blanket, engulfing him.
[SMR result: 148 (Open d100: 79, Bonus: 45)]
A weathered krolvin guide violently shakes and flails, attempting to dislodge the seething mass of crimson-veined mirror spiders covering his body. Panicked, he drops a heavy crossbow and a heavy crossbow and starts brushing the arachnids off of himself.
