Homebrew Arackin Species Details

The arackin race are commonly looked down upon as being disgusting, and creepy. Though, the arackin themselves are curious, intelligent, and respectful beings. They often live alone, and have trouble associating with others as kindness is rarely shown towards them. They build their own homes in cozy small areas (Such as abandoned sheds, or caves/burrows), using branches, carcasses,  and any items they find interesting and hold the home together with their webbing. They do not hunt, as they wait for others to get stuck in their web and slowly die; they will then eat the body over time. When out of home, they'd rather be alone and try to avoid crowded areas in fear of being attacked or shunned upon. Though this can easily vary, most arackins enjoy folklore books and historic objects. As they do not socialize with other races, they find their knowledge of others this way. When in groups, arackins will more often than not lean towards one or two specific people of their liking. Usually the people of their liking are the ones who show the most interest and kindness in them. When friends with one, the arackin will be protective and clingy, wanting to give them gifts of their own liking and preforming dances and singing songs for them.
