Deathstrider Crab

The Deathstrider Crab is a large, spider-like creature found in the barren deserts of Ishuui. It is often referred to as the "Terror of the Night Sands" due to its aggressive behavior and brutal methods of hunting.

Appearance
On average, adult Deathstrider Crabs reach a height of 8 feet tall and 18 feet in length. The abdomen is an average of 3 feet wide, and when fully extended, the creature has a leg span of about 10 feet. It has 8 legs in total, each with a point as sharp as a nail. They are jet black in color, and crawl close to the ground, both of which are direct adaptations in order to maximize the creature's stealth.

Reproduction
Deathstrider Crabs rarely reproduce, often only birthing a new young every four or five years. The eggs from which their larva will be born from must be burrowed underground for about a month before it can hatch. This baby must be alive for 8 years in order to be capable of reproduction, which means that each one crab produces about 5-6 children in its lifespan. The Deathstriders themselves seem to be aware of this fact, as once a female has been fertilized for the fifth time, they inject the male with their own poison, then slash their body to pieces as food for later.
