User:GoldenYak/Spider Lord Rath'amon

A colossal Newbreed Spiderlord. Little more than a living tank, Rath'amon is guided in his assault by a watchful Spidermind, Zoanix, who provides him with guidance.

Dungeon Journal
The Newbreed are considerably different than the previous generations of nerubians. Their mighty Spiderlords have none of the dark majesty and alien intellect that made beings like Anub'arak such monstrous foes. They are living engines of destruction that know barely enough to hold onto their crude weapons. This deficiency is more than compensated for by the presence of Spiderminds, creatures specially bred to act as the 'brains' of the Newbreed ground forces. Spiderminds have formidable mental powers that they use to keep in contact with their brethren and relay tactical decisions to them.

The Spiderlord Rath'amon has formed a formidable bond with the Spidermind Zoanix, who watches his counter-parts battles from within the safety of the Palace. With Zoanix's keen mind directing his power, Rath'amon is a lethal foe.

Spells and Abilities
Locust Swarms deal nature damage to all nearby targets and cause them to become Pacified. Swarms will slowly move towards the nearest target within 20 yards. If there are no targets within 20 yards, the Locust Swarm will remain stationary. If a Locust Swarm comes into direct contact with another Locust Swarm, they will merge, becoming larger, faster, and dealing more damage. If a Locust Swarm comes into direct contact with a player, it will latch onto that player for several seconds before releasing them. If a Locust Swarm comes into direct contact with Rath'amon, he will absorb it and gain Verminous Energy.
