Drider (Sketch)

Hope you're not afraid of spiders, 'cause the next species in the bestiary is the Drider! ?️

As you can imagine, I took inspiration mainly from Rachnera from Monster Musume, and some details from classic D&D. I think that legs require some extra polish, but I'm sure the human part is almost done ?

Now, you might ask: "So, is it possible to make Driders in Koikatsu?" The answer is... technically yes, you can create a spider body with basic shapes, but you won't be able to move the legs into a real pose. That's why this one had to be done from scratch, to give a bit more of movement effect to the first pair of legs. It takes longer, but it also means we'll have plenty more options for the future ?

Lore-wise, Driders will have a big role in the level-up story. Despite their appearance, they have a good commercial link with humans. Their silk is appreciated to create clothes for giantesses, as it's one of the few materials that can resist growth. All driders have poison, which has an important B.E. component that alchemists want for their potions. As for the driders themselves, when trading most of the time they'll ask for money... or human partners to perform their mating rituals ?
