Pretender- Spider Queen

[HoneyBadger]

Brownoak, I'm assuming you're referencing Ungoliant a bit, from the Silmarillion. Anansi is in any case a much different and more complex character than a "Spider-Queen/Great Mother of Spiders". I don't mean that in a bad way, since both are excellent for Machaka and there's no reason why both can't exist as separate and very distinct entities in the game. I would think that Anansi would be more generically useful, while a Spider Queen would be a better combat Pretender. I'd suggest a straight Ungoliant chassis, with her peculiar qualities, but she wasn't really a spider, just had a spider form, and she'd just end up eating everyone and everything in her Nation, anyway. It would be nice if there were a way to mod in a forced Death3 (etc) scale for picking a particular pretender-type, though. Anyway, I'd hate to see Endoperez's Anansi subsumed, or Brownoak's Spider Queen left out of the game because of the presence of Anansi, because I feel both ideas are great and should, separately, be in the game.
