You are the latest in a long line of HOUSE SPIDERS. You and your bloodline have lived in this house for generations, ridding it of all bugs which might disturb the peaceful lives of its inhabitants. In this time, you've been given many names: the protectors of the homestead, devourers of irritation, insect dissectors. Soon, you hope to be given a new name, one which generations of spiders henceforth will remember in awe: SILENCER OF THE VAST BUZZ.

There's been rumors going around the local bug population lately about a legendary flying creature. They say it's louder and more obnoxious than any other of its kind, yet no web can trap it, and no fang can puncture its flesh. They say it's a mindless, eldritch beast, sending mad those who dare to look at it too closely. They say its behavior is erratic and incomprehensible, tearing all worldly understanding from the minds of those around it. Today's the day you intend to put these rumors to the test.
