Homebrew Anadi Species Details

Found in secluded places throughout the world, Anadi are spiderlike creatures that have developed much intelligence. An anadi can appear as anything from a human with an extra pair of arms or eyes, to a full-on spider the size of a humanoid. Anadi are often targeted by racism and fear, due to simply being arachnids, which is why they prefer to live in secluded places. Wise elders and sages advise anadi leaders, who are usually female. Anadi leaders are not chosen by vote or lineage, but by spirited dance battles happening every two years.
