Spinnetod (German: Spider Death)

Female Spinnetods are known to molt their skin every five years from an age presumably as early as 13, a process known as le retour d'age (the return of age). Before molting, they must devour a male's insides in order to expand enough to crack their outermost layer of skin. Some Spinnetods choose not to live this violent lifestyle, and they are known as Wieder Spinnetod. Unfortunately, female Wieder Spinnetods experience the effects of rapid aging since they are unable to molt without consuming human entrails.

Females are known to kill their mates shortly after copulation. They have an attraction to shiny objects, such as watches, and dislike water. It is not known why Spinnetods are attracted to shiny objects, and even Spinnetods themselves do not understand the attraction.
