Battle Spiders[edit]

Here are the Spider Riders' Battle Spiders:

Shadow

Voiced by: Takashi Kondo (Japanese), Joseph Motiki (English) Hunter's spider (though Shadow disagrees in the beginning), a prideful warrior who thinks he doesn't need a rider and is also very stubborn and won't admit when he's wrong, especially one who may be destined to bring disaster to Arachna (i.e., Hunter). He hates large crowds. He is said to have legendary strength. He complains about most of the things Hunter does, though they make a very good team. When he uses an oracle key his two front legs grow more sturdy and his abdomen become more armored. When he uses 2 oracle keys, his two front legs grow abnormally longer and straight. When he uses 3 or 4 keys two hands emerge and two legs grow. Shadow is a direct descendant of the Ancestral, Lord of Spiders. Shadow cares for Venus.

Venus

Voiced by: Sanae Kobayashi (Japanese), Caroly Larson (English) Corona's spider. She is soft-spoken and gentle, but is fearless in battle. She also cares for Shadow.

Flame

Igneous' silent spider. He has the ability to shoot webs made out of fire.

Ebony

Voiced by: Kenta Miyake Lumen's spider. Said to be very powerful and destructive, this restrains Lumen to call it out, for fear of accidentally hurting someone. When he does call him out, 'he means business' according to Igneous. He doesn't talk after his first appearance, but finally talks (much to the Spider Riders' amazement) to persuade his Rider, Prince Lumen to take his sister through the Labyrinth to get to Mantid's Castle.

Hotarla

Voiced by: Yuu Asakawa (Japanese), Grace Fulliton (English) Sparkle's spider. Unlike the other spiders, she is not a spider ready for battle and has distinctive large eyes. She'd rather not take risks.

Brutus

Voiced by: Shigeru Chiba (Japanese), Darren Frost (English) Magma's spider. He has tremendous strength, and is looking for his sister, Portia.

Portia

Voiced by: Kumiku Higa Aqune's spider. She is Brutus's missing sister. Like Aqune, Portia wears a mask over her face that controls her. She is known for her unique purple color.

Dagger

Quake's spider. He is said to be a legendary battle spider. And said to be the strongest of all.
