— Risen Spider Lord

The Risen Spider Lord is a master of Risen spiders. He guards Beacon Torch, an ancient lighthouse which Risen bone ships require for navigating through the darkness of the Orrian Veil. He battles a squad led by Sergeant Eilye Jeyne who try to reach the lighthouse during the Pact's invasion of Orr in 1325 AE. The Risen Spider Lord is ultimately felled, and his death opens a way to Beacon Torch, the light of which the Pact redirects to run bone ships aground as a means of weakening the Elder Dragon Zhaitan's navy.
