Tarantula
"Tul"
Female : 73 : Queen : Aro/Ace
Tribe(s): Hivewing
Appearance: {A very dark Hivewing, with pale yellow spots.}
Tarantula's scales are mostly a dark ashen gray with some black scales, but she has light yellow flecks on her ears, wings and legs. Her eyes are a greenish-blue. She has a stinger in her tail, and small, stinger-like barbs on her wings, which look like very small hairs. (Similar to the ones on Stinging Nettles)
Tarantula is quite a bit larger than most other Hivewings and has a muscular build. While she is rather fast when flying or running, she is not very agile and it takes a bit for her to reach her top speed or slow down, which makes her better at long distance chases but a bit awkward in tight spaces. (Her wingspan would also make it difficult to fly inside the hives, she's probably almost as tall as Morrowseer)

Abilities: Her wing spikes have a painful venom, and she has tail stinger, which has no venom but is pretty sharp. Is physically pretty strong.
Personality:
{+Clever +Protective =Introverted =Perfectionist -Secretive -Vengeful}
As she is the queen of two tribes, Tarantula tries to appear strong and threatening. She acts as if others are not worth their time, which is not entirely fake. She tends to think that other Hivewings are weaker and less intelligent than her, and need her protection to survive.
She does deeply care about her tribe though. While she isn't too concerned about the Silkwings, and lets each Hive decide how to treat them, Tarantula strongly believes that Hivewings deserve more freedom than the previous Queens gave them.
While she is under the influence of the Othermind, it does not directly control her most of the time. Only a small amount of Hivewings can actually be controlled by her, most of which are guards or family of guards.
To her family and close friends Tarantula is a lot more honest and very protective, showing a more nervous side who is afraid to do a bad job. When Tarantula was younger she had a bad fear of failure, and even now she has a tendency to only do something if she is sure she can do it right, although she is very good at hiding it.
Although Tarantula normally avoids using violence, she does not tolerate any threats to her tribe. While she is kind to her tribe, she can be just as cruel, and is not afraid to destroy those who are a threat to her rule. She won't forgive anyone who hurt her or those close to her.
History:
Tarantula was not actually well known in the hives. She spent most of her time inside and avoided being seen as much as possible, so not much is known about her youth. There are rumors that she had a sister she was very close to, who was killed by a Leafwing, but no one outside of the royal family is sure.
When she was 18 she became queen, which was a surprise even to her siblings, as Tarantula hadn't shown much interest in it before.
During her rule there were many tried to kill or get rid of her. While very few managed to seriously injure her, it did make her more paranoid.
It's very rare to see her without at least one guard nowadays.

Enemies: Leafwings. While Tarantula has never directly interacted with one, she hates them for killing Hivewings. Although she does feel bad about the deaths of the trees, she thinks it was necessary to get rid of the Leafwings.
