Tarantula People are a tribe of Kinkow who can use Dark Magic to transform into tarantulas to defend themselves. They are the secondary antagonists of the series, and the most recurring villains.
Culture[]
A large part of the culture seems to be cruelty, and barbarianism to others. However, Rebecca's dad implies that violence was not originally their way, and he and several other tarantula people splintered from their own kind because they were sickened by their people's use of violence.
The tarantula people tie people to boards and put tarantulas on them to torture them. If people demand to be released the tarantula people put them in quicksand. (Return of the Kings) Their greatest desire is to resurrect their mummy, Kaita the Bat-Rider, using the Bat Medallion.
The Bat Medallion also allows whoever holds it to control the Tarantula people. They also can practice dark magic, such as transforming warriors into actual tarantulas to sneak into enemy areas or using a tarantula's bite to take control of a person's mind. When the spiders take control of a victims brain, the spider then turns into a spider tattoo, until the victim is knocked out.
Most of them seem to be warriors, and carry weapons and wear armor. Upon winning, their leader takes the vanquished possessions or teeth as a trophy.
When they bury their dead, the graves are marked with piles of stone.
Also when they defeat a king they take their most precious things, it's either that or punch out all the monarch's teeth and wear them as a necklace. They also all have a lot of armpit hair.
