They were also known to cause landslides, stopping travelers from proceeding. It was also established that there were more types of Arathim, including the Crystal Singers and the death stingers. Lee's young adult novels, the Arathim are also referred to as spiders, and are described as much more spiderlike than their Age of Resistance counterparts. ĭuring and after the battle, SkekTek created the first Garthim using Arathim and Gruenak corpses. The Ascendancy participated in the later stages of the Second Battle of Stone-in-the-Wood, driving back the Skeksis and joining the Gelflings in the victory celebrations. They subsequently agreed to switch their allegiance to the Gelflings after Deet showed them a safe exit from the caves and promised to share Grot with them in the future. Īfter securing Grot, the Arathim were trapped and attacked by darkened Nurlocs. Arathim forces lead by skekVar successfully defeated the Stonewood Rebellion, and then headed to Grot, unaware that the caves had been infected by the Darkening and that the Skeksis intended for them to die there. Thirty trine later, skekSo the Emperor convinced the Arathim to join the Skeksis in their war against the Gelfling resistance, promising to return their ancient homeland to them. Hundreds of trine later, the Arathim fought against the Stonewood Clan in what became known as the Arathim Wars, but were defeated during the First Battle of Stone-in-the-Wood. The Skeksis then handed Grot to the ancestors of the Grottan Clan, thus causing the Arathim to feel bitter towards Gelfling. The Arathim were one of Thra's oldest races, and initially lived in the caves of Grot, before being banished to the catacombs of the Castle of the Crystal by the Skeksis when they refused to serve them as an army. The Spitters themselves came in several different forms, including Silk Spitters, responsible for constructing nests, Poison Spitters, which were nearly wiped out by skekVar, and the Zoa, who had evolved to live as parasites in the sea-beast Mondo Levidian. Among the more prominent subspecies were Spitters, which constituted the Arathim's main fighting force, and Threaders, who had the ability to control Gelfling and other creatures. All subspecies were psychically united by a hive-mind known as the Ascendancy.
The Arathim were a family of sentient arthropod-like creatures, sporting innumerable subspecies which differed in size and number of limbs.
