[October] Creature Suggestion: The Aracovas

First creature suggestion! I'm in for some tough competition! Have you seen the amazing creatures other players made? Wow. Aracovas: Araneae (spider) + Corvus (raven). Both art and description were created by me, mythlight. This took me about 45 minutes or so to draw... I was rushing...

The Aracovas has a midnight black shell which contrasts with the blood-red spider that lays on top of it. Aracovus eggs are found in dark forests on the edge of Ark.


Many citizens of Ark wonder what species this mysterious creature is. Is it a spider? A raven? Maybe both? Scientists from the research lab believe it is neither and exists as its own species; the Aracovas.

Although the form of the Aracovas looks harmless, it is definitely not. The spider ejects a poisonous venom and has a firm grip on its front legs while the raven uses its sharp intellect and quick thinking to take an enemy down. The combination of brute force and intelligence makes the Aracovas a very powerful and deadly enemy.

Edit: @Orderedchaos Could you move this to Creature Suggestions and fan art? Thanks~

@mythlight
I like the surprise of the spider being on the birds head. 😊

I wouldn't have moved the spider to the wing as it doesn't quite make evolutionary sense. But you could have kept the spider on the head and transformed the spider into a spider leg crest like a parrot crest.

Nice idea. Good luck. 😊
