Talk:Arachnia

And I suppose these insectoid beings are dryders … not to jump to conclusions though. – NuclearDuckie 23:10, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Considering the gw.dat description of the Domain of Fears mentions remains of a spider or dryder-like race/civilization being within the explorable area... I wouldn't doubt it. -- Konig / talk 23:17, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
 * ...Arachni a ? Probably named after this god though.– User Balistic B d-dark.pngalistic 05:48, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Arachnia, Arachne, Arachni... etc. etc. are all various form of spider-related names in various fictions. Arachne is, in fact, from greek mythos as the origin of spiders (a person who was taught to weave by Athena, later angered the goddess and was killed by Athena in fury akin to why Balthazar killed Kaolai, then Athena turned Arachne into a spider out of pity so that she and all her children can weave). Both are probably named after Arachne or the Arachnid name. -- Konig / talk 05:53, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Should be noted that said concept art is from Factions. Then again, I've been told it was said a long long time ago that Guild Wars was originally made to have stories in groups of three campaigns (implying that Prophecies and Factions were always intended to be linked to Nightfall). My personal theory is that Arachnia was one of the original concepts for what Abaddon is - probably redone due to Abaddon's Mouth. May have even been Dhuum originally, since he was the first fallen god we knew of. -- Konig / talk 15:31, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
