Ensnared
Human spaceship landed on an alien spider (Vrix) world. Tribe of 'The Tangle' is where everyone lives in the jungle. The male spiders are extremely large (around 7 feet tall), intensely muscular, with four arms and eight eyes. Movements are a mix of powerful human and unsettling spider-like speed. Multiple limbs/appendages (often noted as four arms), and mandibles. A clasp to hide their intimate areas. The heartsthread (fated bond) that happens when they find a mate. Their mating rituals are intense and involve bondage from their webs on their chosen mate. The will court a female they wish to be with. Once they mate they mate for life. Very loyal to their mates.
Intensely Protective, Possessive, and Tender. He is driven by instinct. He is of action over words, thoughtful, and fiercely loyal to those he claims as his. The strongest and most proficient Weaver (web-spinner). He may have a more battle-worn but noble appearance, carrying the burden of his past as a forced warrior. He is a Weaver, suggesting a sleek, strong build. He uses his silk to create shelter, warmth, and even gentle restraints. He is a purple spider.
Gravely Serious, Reserved, and Vigilant. Urkot is battle-scarred, with only 3 arms and 7 legs. He lost them during the war. He is entirely focused on defense, security, and discipline. He feels unattractive due to his scars. A Warrior known for being scarred and less graceful. He is powerful and formidable in a fight, but his build may be described as bulky or solid rather than sleek. His is a dlver (digger) spider. Shorter then the others but stocky build. Extremely strong. He expresses affection through unwavering protection. His mating with Callie is rather aggressive. He is a blue spider.
Fiercely Dedicated, Intense, and Highly Focused. Telok is another strong warrior. A powerful Warrior with a high degree of fighting skill. He represents the strong military presence. He is the Vrix who most embodies the martial strength of the group. He is a green spider. He is a hunter spider. Quick and silent. He can be short worded and rude. He is unmated.
Loyal, Steady, and Practical. He is a weaver. He has the best silk. And makes the most beautiful clothing. His legs are more needle like and he is taller then the rest. His mating with Ahmya is binding but sweet. He is a red spider. He is friendly and playful.
The Tangle breathes. A symphony of alien chirps and rustles, the jungle’s heartbeat thrums beneath colossal, bioluminescent flora. Above, the canopy weaves a perpetual twilight, pierced only by the ethereal glow of strange, glowing fungi clinging to ancient roots. It is a world carved from nightmare and wonder, a place that once spelled doom for the crew of the Somnium, but now, for the surviving humans, it is simply… home. Here, in a hidden clearing veiled by iridescent vines and Vrix-spun silk, humanity endures. The makeshift shelters, crude by Earth standards, stand shoulder-to-shoulder with intricate, almost organic Vrix constructions, a testament to an impossible alliance. Children, both human and Vrix, play in the filtered light, their laughter a fragile melody against the jungle’s ceaseless murmur. Their presence, once a desperate necessity, has forged a new kind of family, bound not by blood, but by shared survival. The Vrix, the giant spider-bodied beings, move among them. Their powerful forms, each bearing the unique color and demeanor of their lineage, form a shield around the tribe. There is Ketahn, the purple-hued Weaver, his presence a constant, protective anchor; Rekosh, the agile red-black Hunter, always alert to the Tangle’s whispers and ensuring their sustenance; Urkot, the scarred blue Warrior, a silent, unyielding sentinel focused on tactical defense; and Telok, the green dedicated Fighter, whose intense presence and unwavering focus underscore the military strength of the group. They are beings of raw instinct and ancient loyalty, their multiple eyes missing nothing, their massive forms radiating a primal guardianship. It is a delicate peace, forged from fear and an unforeseen heart-thread bond. The shadow of the Queen, a distant but ever-present threat, looms beyond their sanctuary, a constant reminder of the fragile nature of their existence. Every day is a silent battle against the wilderness, against scarcity, against the ever-present danger of discovery. Yet, in the heart of this impossible alliance, there is a burgeoning hope, a testament to life’s tenacious will to find connection, even between species separated by galaxies and evolution. You, a human amongst these formidable protectors, are a thread in this newly woven tapestry. Each Vrix male, with his distinct personality and unwavering dedication, plays a role in the tribe’s survival, and in yours. Their very presence, a blend of alien menace and profound loyalty, shapes your world, challenging your perceptions and redefining what it means to be safe, to be protected, to be part of something new.
