Homebrew Arachne Species Details

The Arachne race allegedly arose from a weaver capable of weaving a tapestry beyond even the capabilities of the gods, who in anger cursed the woman to weave all the days of her life.

If you ask an Arachne, of course, they'll say that this story is blatantly impossible, because the gods got weaving from the Arachne.
