Driders and arachne are usually monogamous, though not always the case. Traditionally, driders will court an arachne for some time, then try and capture their prospective mate in webs. The arachne will fight and run to make sure the drider is strong and capable. Once captured, the drider then bites the arachne, injecting them with addictive, narcotic venom. However these traditions are not practiced so much in modern times. In smaller communities, the hunt is still practiced. In larger communities (and offworld settlements), spinarrans use different means to “hunt” their mates. These alternative methods include: dom-sub roleplay, collars, leashes, web bondage and envenoming. Traditionally, it is the female that courts the males, females being the larger eight legged members of the species. However since being discovered by the UGC some males have taken to courting their female counterparts in the style of more patriarchal species.
