Invectids



Invectids are the species that compose most of the enemies of the Humans, for many years they schemed to conquer Arachna. They reside in the Invectid Nation. That changed once Mantid was defeated and the Oracle Sun was restored.

It was at this time that a little known Invectid warrior by the name of Mantid stepped forward. Mantid impressed the Invectid people by apparently defeating the humans legendary hero Quake in battle. He then claimed that the Oracle had forsaken the Invectids in favor of the humans. He was able to get the Invectid people so angry that they appointed him there new leader. He then reorganized the Invectid army, who battled with humans army, the number of casualties on both Invectid and human sides were numerous.

Eventually the truth of Mantid's lies were revealed by the Spider Riders. They, along with the Oracle were then able to resurrect of the sun and the Invectid nation was made livable once again.
