− | + | '''Brown recluse spider men''' are humanoid versions of the common [[brown recluse spider]] and a species of [[animal people]], found in [[savage]] [[temperate]] broadleaf [[forest]]s. They are a little over half the size of an adult [[dwarf]] and appear in groups of 1 to 3 individuals. Their existence is marked by [[web]]s scattered across the surface, but the creatures themselves are uncommon to encounter. | |

As adventurers, they have the advantages of no need for sleep, [[No Pain|not feeling pain]] or fear, having three pairs of arms (which leads to them equipping five [[shield]]s and a [[weapon]] if shield user skill is selected at gen), and a moderately [[Syndrome|venomous]] bite that is usually deflected by [[clothes]], but is quite effective at incapacitating animals with pain. Additionally, they cannot disturb or be caught in webs and can actually harvest them and turn them into [[thread]]. An empty hand must be available to hold the web in order to convert it into thread. |

+ | The downsides are non-standard and rather small body size, meaning most found [[armor]] will not be useful and strength will be at a malus. Additionally, brown recluse spider men are completely unable to swim or consume plant food (e.g. berries) due to being carnivorous. Due to the way ''Dwarf Fortress'' names things, upon achieving superior base stats, these creatures become ''superbrown'' (e.g. having superbrown recluse spider man strength). | ||
