#but babs OWNS it and the system its her domain

[biohazbat]

Hate when people replace Babs with Tim. As if she isn't the information broker and tech specialist of the batfamily. I think Tim learned most of his computer skills under her wing.

His expertise lies more in gadget tinkering and straight-up sleuthing. He helps gather information but Babs organizes and controls it. As if she would let him get away with attempts to hack her system, successful or not.

Skitter and His Brood the Kirchende

An offshoot of the Recluse progenum, Skitter has moved away from the standard eight legged central form, and through his personal line of adaptions and divine heritage arrived at a form resembling something more along the lines of a giant centipede. His brood has followed suit if this branch manages to spread and take root in a few more centuries Eden will have a new progeny on its hands. Indeed though they resemble giant centipedes mistaking one of this breed of spiderkin for mere vermin is liable to be a fatal mistake on the part of an adventuring band. Skitter himself is rather young as fathers of broods go, indeed he is only around a thousand years old give or take a century or two, thus he lacks the upper limits of spiderkin spell casting or size. To prevent his own death he has taken up acting as a totem/avatar of his lord father to a sizable bug cult in the Salt Valleys region. Spreading his brood slowly into the northern expanse for the last half millennia. Though all but the eldest have kept the salt valleys and surrounding forest. He has also struck up an alliances with three other powers to solidify his domain, The Lord Warden of Curthoff Anthony Curthoff, has long used Skitters bug cults to instill fear into the populous and as justification for his own iron rain. This has lead to a beneficial relationship between the two the warden informs skitter of ill protected villages for his cultists to raid, and Curthoff looses enemies while gaining support. Numerous bandit clans have fallen under the rule of skitters son Andrichas who while a half breed is just as wily as his father. While not the least has been his beloved mate Aster and her coven.

Lore: Gaunt is not quite the eldest of his fathers sons but is perhaps the most learned and devout, serving Trelmarixian the horsemen of famine as his divine master. He regularly utilizes planar ally to conjure forth daemons within its limited scope to serve him, he delights in self consumption and using autocannibalism on foes in combat to force such actions. Indeed cannibal tribsmen also serve as his more mortal escort. His lord father allows his son much freedom in these things as Gaunt knows betters then to disobey his brood father but longs for the day he is strong enough to do so. He does deeply love his mother Aster and will arrive at her side to defend her at a moments notice, should she call for him. He is currently entrusted with the northern contingent of his fathers forces. He in physicality is a massive chalk white centipede measuring thirty feet long and a full five feet wide, much of his chitin bears innumerable battle scars, and warped flesh as cancerous growths writhe about his form and knit together and damage inflicted upon him. Indeed upon death Gaunt very well might rise as a unique daemon loyal to Trelmarixian or he very well might finally discover a way to engineer his own apotheosis into a harbinger though far from the mark he currently is.
