Sisters Spider
From Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe
In days to come, in times to pass. There will be one that is four yet one. Alone, United, Bringer of Pain, Bringer of Poison. Bearer of Vitea, Bearer of Visions. Let the ground tremble in their wake.
In days that come, in the time yet distant, One shall be divided for a time. The four threads shall divide. Paths inter-bound yet distinct. Destines diverse to be undone. Then the threads will merge again. Four minds operating as one.
One the beast, the animal shall be. Wild and untamed its heart, Only will Vitae quench its thirst.
One the fury, the pain shall be. Denied understanding and acknowledgment, Returning pain for pain.
One the mentalist, the vatic shall be. Spawned from revenge, driven by desire, Future's Past United.
One the toxic, the deadliest shall be. Quietest of all, yet for sweetest her kiss, Can you drink from her cup?
Let those that see one, Beware. Let those that see two, Be fearful Let those that see four, Run and Pray.

Spider Sister (The)
Summary
The Sisters Spiders are a group of elite troops that found their destines interwoven from early years. As time progressed despite their different training paths, they were drawn together. Once together they discovered that they could call on each other skills to a limited extent and that the sum was greater then the parts. Already exceptional and well known in their particular fields of expertise, they became even more skilled and well known. To the point where this became a hindrance. So they decided, as a group, to fade away as much as possible. Hence while people may still recognize them individual, they do not recognize them as one of the Sisters Spider. Why not? Because the Sisters willed it so through - their combined mental gestalt was powerful enough to temporarily nudge others away from that factoid.
When the time is right, the Sisters will remind every of their existence, but for now they are enjoying their vacation.
Who are they?
The Sister Spider are as follows:
- Arachna Tormentia - The Angry One - A Bane Spider
- Redback Spiderbite - The Feral One - A Crab Spider
- Red Fortunata - The Sane One - A Fortunata
- Vine Widow - The Quiet One - A Night Widow
OOC Note
- This is just the initial upload of this page more details will be added later.
- The Sisters Spider is a play on (if so-far in name only) 'The Sister Wyrd' and will be handled in similar fashion. Tormentia and Redback have the widest recognizable face, but they are all keeping a low profile atm.
- The four sisters are in near constant mental communication with each other and work like a hive-mind. If one notices something, they all know about in short order. However stunning one will not knock out the rest - the others will simply zero in on and pound on whoever did the stunning.
- In order to explain why everyone does not recognize them instantly as "ze powerhouse" they are being played as though they are distracting others from noticing the truth and not calling attention to it. And when/if attention is drawn they have enough power to handle the situation together. You ever faced a coordinated strike from 4 VEATs? *shudder*
- In game, due to technological reasons, the player can only play one at a time, but when writing stories or in other mediums, all can appear at once.
- And yes, the above cryptic verse is rather lame. The writer can't write cryptic verse to save themselves. If someone can do a better job - please do so.
