The Eight Legs were black spiders, generally less than a metre in length, though the Great One was much larger. They relied on human mounts for transport, though they could scuttle along at walking pace. The Eight Legs could create webs like the spiders of Earth, though they were not sticky, merely tough. They fed on the flesh of living creatures, generally the sheep of Metebelis III, though they preferred human meat. (TV: Planet of the Spiders)

  • They are about the size of a small dog, with the exception of their ultimate ruler known as the Great One, which is truly gigantic and to which all the spider queens are subordinate. The Eight Legs are strictly carnivorous, usually feeding on sheep but also having a taste for the flesh of their Human servants (which they refer to as "Two Legs"). Like their ancestors, they produce web to immobilize their victims, although theirs doesn't seem to have adhesive properties.

abstract
  • They are about the size of a small dog, with the exception of their ultimate ruler known as the Great One, which is truly gigantic and to which all the spider queens are subordinate. The Eight Legs are strictly carnivorous, usually feeding on sheep but also having a taste for the flesh of their Human servants (which they refer to as "Two Legs"). Like their ancestors, they produce web to immobilize their victims, although theirs doesn't seem to have adhesive properties. The Eight Legs possess numerous psychic abilities, including telepathy, telekinesis and the ability to control the minds of Humans when clinging to their backs. They can become invisible; shoot off energy discharges, and teleport themselves through all of time and space, although the latter requires the coordinated focus of several members of the species.
