Personality
One of the most careful and caring members of the facility, she has become the head nurse within the medical department.
Despite this however she is extraordinarily squeemish, fainting at the mere sight of blood. Being a nurse then may not be the easiest position for her, but her knowledge and abilities in chemistry means she can make phenomenally effective medicines, that teamed with the fact that her venom has has also mutated to heal rather than corrode, means that she hasnt yet lost a single patient.
She shares similarities with her girlfriend Lychee. Working herself down to the bone to the point it can make her ill, though shes a tad more in tune with her own needs and recognises when she is working too hard.
Design traits
Emerald, like mei and skid is an arachnarkeos. However she was a little deformed from birth after one her siblings ate her egg casing a little bit.
Her lower set of wings have never appeared, and her venom appears to heal rather than corrode like it does traditionally. Her eyesight is also incredibly poor, hense why she needs glasses most of the time. Her current glasses are modified to suit her anatomical features and requirements.
She was adopted by a retired german explorer while she was a sling, He took her in and cared for her along with giving her
a set of glasses until he passed away.
As a result, she speaks fluent german and has a strong accent when she speaks in english, which can sometimes make her hard to understand.
History and inspiration
The arachnarekos race is one of my own, It was partially inspired by the manga "Kumo desu ga, nani ka?", basically where the main protagonist is turned into a spider and dropped into some kind of video game, its quite fun to read, I recommend it!
The arachnarekos race was first designed on the 13th of july 2018
So Emerald specifically is the third arachnarekos that I designed. The design mostly came from my head as I really wanted to try making an insect/ arachnid looking creature, So I took elements of a moth, wasp, spider and put the elements in a bipedal form, I added additional elements that I thought the design called for, such as the scythe picker arms, point feet and generally a sharp and kinda jagged appearance, which people often associated with insects, And hey presto the arachnarekos race was born!
I did attempt to try and give them 8 limbs initially, but they looked a little too much like a spider and made the design look kinda awkward and clumsy, so I removed 4 of the legs to give a more nimble and less clumsy appearance.
