Frost Spider

Frost spiders, or Chakrar as the Kartanin call them, count among the most dangerous predators on Kartan, even if one would count size and strength alone. They are truly massive beasts, capable of snapping small spiders in two with a single attack with their mandibles. Their legs bear jagged, bladelike bone edges on their outer side.

They can vary their colour to some degree, ranging from shades of grey to white and even a slight blue tint. Combined with their ability to remain completely silent while hanging from a cliff and sense smallest tremors, it makes them dangerous and often unexpected hunters.

Frost spiders usually prey on other, smaller predators prowling the tundras. They make their lairs in glacial caverns, and sometimes natural caves.

They shy away from heat.
