Verbs

Armor form

• TAP: Your ring breaks apart explosively into thousands of swarming spiders, which scuttle down your arm in a frenzy! The arachnid wave flows as one, moving with an apparent collective consciousness. Your hand is covered with twisting and writhing legs, but only briefly as the spiders resolidify into a deep ebony exoskeletal shield entangled by a cluster of orbweavers.

Shield form

• SHAKE: You shake your exoskeletal shield, causing it to break apart into thousands of live spiders. The swarm of arachnids scuttles quickly up your arm, nestling themselves on your person until they finally melt and coagulate into a deep ebony orbweaver ring with a glossy carapace.

Verbs

Armor form

Item form

• FOCUS: You sense a ripple of Life magic echoing through the (exoskeletal jewelry), pulsing as if alive, but can tell little else about it.
• STUDY: You think that you can RUB this indigo orb to create armor similar to lamellar hauberk.
• RUB: As you rub the stirring orb's surface, thin, segmented legs spring forth, wrapping themselves tightly around your arms and chest. Quickly, the insect-like form expands to cover your body, forming a tough exoskeleton.
