    Spider Quest time!

    Link to the earlier threads:
    http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Spider%20Quest

    You are a little female jumping spider named Bibi currently living inside a hole in a tree, with your mate Dorpou, your eight young siblings, your newborn brood of spiderlings and your pet centipede Isaac.
    In addition to your family, the hole also is a home for old spider named Ranou, who agreed to let you stay there, and a honorable warrior ladybug named Andor.

    In the last session you improved your home, explored the hole and discovered many curious things, including mushroom bleeding deadly poison (you tested it on an aphid), drug like nectar that caused the other aphid to freak out and run about, a skeleton of a bird and a bird's nest full of all kinds of treasures.

    You and Dorpou are currently residing inside your little web nest, after enjoying the first proper family meal in your new home. Your siblings, children and Isaac are resting inside their web shelters.

    >How this works.
    Suggest an action and then depending how feasible it is, the spider will act.

    You are just an ordinary spider in moder day earth. You have no special powers, other than your intellect.

    Making silk costs proteins, which you can restore by eating. Your mate has his own protein reserves. You are both currently full.

    You can upgrade your nest with silk.Your nest currently has the following improvements:
    >Small rudimentary web nest:
    >Storage chamber
    -20 units of food, 3 chitin plates.
    >8 slingshots.
    >Trap webs near the base of the tree.
    >Aphid pen.
    -3 aphids.

    You also need to feed your family.
    Your siblings, brood and Isaac combined require 15 units of food per day. They are fed for this day however.

    You and Dorpou go to gather food.
    The vibrations emanating from the silk strings indicate that something has gotten itself stuck to one of your trap webs, thus you and Dorpou check it out first.


    It seems that some sort of hairy worm has managed to tangle itself to your web.

    Do we want to keep building up a private store of live aphids that we have to feed? Or just hunt them? We also basically use them as currency to get the ladybug to help us.

    Aphids reproduce asexually in the spring and summer, and very fast. Only when the summer is nearing it's end, do male aphids hatch, and then mate with the females who then lay eggs that will hibernate over the winter.

    Seconding what others have said - the chance of a scent trail that leads the ants to our nest is a much bigger problem than just the one ant.

    You aren't sure of what it is doing, but it is certainly dragging it's abdomen very close to the ground.
    It is also quite fast, shaking it of while dragging the aphids is easier said than done.

    Ok... Ok... It was dragging it's butt on the ground for some reason... Maybe we should take it's now dead butt and drag it around in the exact opposite direction of where we are going.

    Throw 'em off the trail. Sure Dorpou can keep the aphids secure long enough for us to set a false trail.

    The berries might be useful as a food source for our aphid farm.

    Try and squeeze out the scent of the ant and make the trail lead to the wasps, with any luck, at least one problem will solve itself.

    When we get back, ask lady bug what he knows of the bees. Are they open to dialogue and diplomacy?

    Dorpou keeps the aphids secure while you start dragging the body of the ant to the opposite direction of your nest, in order to throw any would be followers of your trails.

    While doable, it would take considerable effort and time, as the wasp nest is quite far away from your current location.

    Just the rough direction. I'm pretty sure the ants know there are wasps nearby, while we're probably mostly unknown to them.

    Just to give them the chance to guess who might have killed their scout/sentry.

    You return to your spider cave.

    Everything seems to be in order.

    Until Andor walks up to you ans says:

    "There is a wasp hanging by the hole, claiming to be your friend. I haven't allowed her inside, but she keeps coming down here to pester me. And that old spider does nothing but sleep in his web. I felt obliged to guard your offspring while you were gone, but I do not want this to become my day job.
    If you wanted to get more aphids, you should have talked to me, after all, that is where I excel."

    Yeah, she can stay. She doesn't need meat to survive and can talk to wasp without being attacked.

    >Aphids
    You see, we tried to get on of the ants' sentries to follow us so we could lay a trail to the wasp nests. If the ants fight the wasp they might reduce the number of soldiers guarding the aphids.

    >Old spider
    We should at least try to incorporate his web into our security network or get him to stay closer to our young.

    After explaining yourself to him, he calms down considerably.
    "Oh, very well then. I hope you know what you are doing by associating yourself with that wasp. I know that she isn't a hiver, but she is a wasp nonetheless. They aren't to be trusted."

    You ask him for aphid hunting tricks.

    "Tricks? Why would you need tricks? Aphids are easy to take down. What you should be worried about are the ants guarding them. Against them there is only one advice I can give you. Do not fight them, unless you are absolutely sure that they are alone. If they manage to outnumber you, you are as good as dead, almost happened to me, but then you came by and saved me."

    He reminds you of that he already agreed to supply the aphids with food, such as leaves and other similar things.
    He also says that he honestly doesn't know much about materials, other than tree bark, that Isaac could use.
    The same lack of knowledge applies to the water striders, as they aren't his prey.

    Sorry guys, but it seems I'll have to end this session here. I know that it is a horrible place to do so, but something rather unexpected came up.
    I will run the next installment of Bibi's adventures around the same time next Saturday.
    I hope that all who participated enjoyed themselves.
