Drow Archnimancer

Drow Arachnimancer
Level 18 (+7)
"Ignore my summons again at your own peril, Mage. Do not think that just because Lilith desires your expertise in Eldritch Magics that you are somehow irreplaceable. Your brothers thought the same thing once, and now they are fodder for her malformed slaves."
——Words commonly spoken to a Drow Arachnimancer
The Arachnimancer is the highest level of power both personally and politically a male dark elf can hope to attain within the confines of Drow Society. All females are required to be clerics, yet Lilith has need of those who wield the Eldritch Arts, so the mastery of this role falls to a few select males, almost always of noble birth, who show enough devotion and reverence to their dark mistress to be deemed worthy to wield such power. All of an Arachnimancer’s spells are themed around energies that pay homage to their faith, focusing on poison and corroding elements, as well as spider summoning and deadly mind-bending illusions. They are required to wear black and purple, light web-mesh armor called Drow Weave, ornamented with arachnid symbology. As many male Drow secretly resent their forced bondage, the position of the Arachnimancer is highly coveted, for while no male can truly be free of Lilith only the Arachnimancer shares equal footing with a Drow Priestess in the eyes of the demon queen.

Summon Spider Swarm [CT 5, REC 3]: Summon a Giant Spider Swarm within 40ft. Each Giant Spider functions autonomously thereafter, though the Arachnimancer may give them simple commands as a Free Action. These creatures otherwise act as a Summoned Creature. (Basic, Pot 1d4+7, MR No)

5 or more, choose one of the following:
Green Amber [CT 4, REC 3]: Target all creatures within 20ft diameter area within 100ft, +15 vs Reflex.

Acid Storm [CT 6, Rec 5]: Target all creatures in a 40ft diameter area within 500ft, +15 vs Reflex. On a hit, targets suffer 4d6+40 Caustic damage and are in Pain (2) for 1d4 rounds. On a miss, targets suffer half damage. (Advanced, Pot 1d8+7, MR Yes)

On a hit, the target is Polymorphed into a Giant Spider and is Dominated [SE, ST 5d10 vs CHA, save ends both conditions]. The target maintains its original hitpoints and Charisma Saving Throw (for purposes of saving from this power), but otherwise takes on all aspects of the Giant Spider. (Legendary, Pot 1d12+7, MR Yes)
Eyebite (Legendary, Pot 1d12+7, MR Yes)
