"My looks can be deceiving; my touch
will be lethal."
Reformed from her Predacon
history of treachery and double-dealing, Blackarachnia became a
Maximal largely thanks to her relationship with the noble Maximal
known as Silverbolt. Under the command of Optimus Primal, Blackarachnia
proved herself in the battles to liberate Cybertron from Megatron's
tyranny. Following the Maximal victory and reformatting of Cybertron
itself, Blackarachnia enjoyed a brief spell of peace and happiness
with Silverbolt by her side. However, due to the machinations of
Unicron, Blackarachnia has once again been corrupted, this time
siding with a renegade Decepticon faction loyal to Unicron. In spider
mode Blackarachnia can scale any surface, is extremely agile and
is invisible to all scanning equipment. She can spin webs for a
variety of uses both offensive and defensive. Her metal-deteriorating
web nets deflect energy pulses, while web based throwing stars explode
to ensnare their target upon impact. Two stinger legs disrupt/overload
all but the most heavily shielded electronic systems. Can ground
herself with legs and use stingers to send electronic pulses through
the ground towards enemies. Six eyes are can see into the infrared
spectrum.
