question abt bodies - cortexx - 10-03-2019
hiya! so i was wondering, if i were to make a character that is an abnormally large spider (not huge, necessarily! just around the size of a domestic cat, at least), would that fall under mythical bodies or mutations?
p.s.: the largest spider, the goliath birdeater, averages at about a foot in diameter (iirc)
p.p.s.: it wouldn't be used for combat (outside of plot combat ig?) like. at all. if that matters

I would say that if you are planning on having it be a Goliath birdeater specifically then it'd be fine to be about the size of a small cat, but otherwise it'd be like the spider in harry potter and would need mythical creature since I can't think of a mutation that would make the spider bigger like that

gigantism is an actual thing, but idk if it appears in animals, so would that possibly be a mutation?

[align=center][div style="width:60%;overflow:auto;font-family:verdana;font-size:11px;text-align:justify"]Gigantism is something that does appear within animals in the deep sea as well as humans, but right now we don't allow creatures being larger than they are and simply being that animal but big, if that makes sense? We might in the future allow for creatures to be bigger than they actually are meant to be without buying a big power like mythical creature ( and staff is currently working on newer powers ) but for now it wouldn't be allowed.
