Scarachnid is the Omnitrix/Ultimatrix's DNA sample of a Pa'voüki from the planet Pa'voütyine.
Appearance[]
Scarachnid is a large, humanoid spider. He has six spider-like legs and two arms, resulting into a total of eight limbs, like actual arachnids. Scarachnid has red foot tips, claws, upper head and torso stripes. He also has consistent purple stripes on his arms.
Scarachnid has several red or black growths protruding out of his head. He also has eight red eyes, with six being small and expandable.
Personality[]
Scarachnid speaks in a creepy, dark manner, sometimes joking about inappropriate things. (TV-14 WARNING!)
Powers and Abilities[]
Scarachnid is a feared jumpscarer who can force the victim to scream and pass out after suddenly appearing in front of it. He has everything needed to gain the target's scare, from expandable eyes to sharp teeth, and even retractable leg tips, body and claws.
In darkness, Scarachnid is much more powerful, since he has the advantage of being shadowy and thus, scary. Scarachnid has a kind of darkness-travelling method which involves him propelling himself through shadows.
Scarachnid is a very quick wall and ceiling climber, which also aids him in his scare tasks. His large size also grants him strength, and his six legs give him the ability to react quickly to attacks. He even appears to have a back vision, despite not having his eyes on the back.
Scarachnid can jump exceptionally high, as well as boosting himself inside the air in darkness.
When scaring someone, Scarachnid becomes a ghastly spider, constantly hissing and resembling a large dark ghost. He can switch his colors to become invisible to normal light, although he is visible in infrared frequencies.
Weaknesses[]
Scarachnid's powers are limited when exposed to bright light. Whilst he is not harmed by it, he has trouble scaring someone in full light.
Scarachnid's powers are useless against beings who are unable to see or hear. Also, his scare effect will be reduced if a precognition user locates him or predicts his intention.
Scarachnid's jokes include ones about death and more serious dark topics, which can damage someone's sanity, including allies who are strong with emotions.
Species and Home Planet[]
Pa'voüki are spider-like species from the web-covered planet Pa'voütyine. The planet was once invaded by extragalactic warriors who came for the silk produced by female Pa'voüki. Unfortunately for them, they underestimate Pa'voüki, who developed scare techniques to use on weak-minded and gradually enhancing them. On the sunset of the 4th month of the Pa'voütyine year, the most feared specimen were selected to overwhelm the conquerors. The heroic female warrior Vajadh Zoüfitr Yessh scared the soul out of the supreme dictator, whose name remains unknown after his death. The rest of the dictators hid in space or killed themselves of fear. The day of the year then became a planetary holiday for the Pa'voüki.
Etymology[]
Scarachnid's name is a combination of the words "Scare" (and variants) and arachnid, which is the class of arthropods which includes spiders and scorpions, the animals Scarachnid is based off.
