Mai

Trivia

A cobalt blue tarantula (Cyriopagopus lividus) in basis.

Adult, but given circumstances can be considered somewhat immature socially. She is learning what is and is not appropriate by extent.

Although possessing a degree of inherent knowledge, it has been a somewhat considerable road in terms of learning about current situational depth.

Use of technology, including phones for the videos that can play on relevant devices, has considerably bolstered her awareness of Italic and other languages. She seems to be a fast learner, paralleling her rapid demeanour.

A small and often nondescript individual who often scales buildings and other structures to maneuver around Verona. Webs are occasionally left behind to that extent, but not vastly.

Typically the crowds, although not too prevalent, are avoided through this means.

Occasionally sees things happen from a varying vantage, usually conflict or theft, or occurrences that can be considered wider in scale. If something is considerably detrimental, she may relay related fact to individuals of significance.

Although not too forefront in matters, she does understand the gravity to injuries and other complications.

She may or may not have multiple eyes hidden beneath her hair, albeit this quality can itself differ through use of illusion or changes in direct morphology.

Ocular appearance is dim, ranging from a dark brown to sheer black hue per situation: when evident. Appears Cambodian ancestrally, although this is realistically a factor emulated through relative genetics. She has not yet gained in scale, perhaps restricted beneficially by the sun from reaching the size others can exhibit.

May be fireproof. She has shown capacity for that aspect on one occasion, although there is no apparent capability to breath fire or remotely ignite flames.

Features a very poor sense of sight. This reflects on inherent species’ background as an underground tarantula.

Carnivorous, albeit subsisting on insects and other high-protein sources. This is evidently to reduce need for other directions.

Speaks a number of European languages at this time. Evidently had been coherent regarding a few languages related to Cambodia initially.

Considerably intelligent. Her manner however can make it seem otherwise at times. This can cause others to underestimate her, which she can use to her advantage. Being devalued in a direct manner is a reason for discountenance, which appears to be the basis for tricking others in attempt to disorient or discomfit. Usually seems to ignore this unless having confidence about a person, the fact of assumption being shattered impactful.

Picked her own name, the basis for this uncertain. May have heard the term following her escape.

Italic languages and a number of Austroasiatic languages have similar phonetic structures, which makes fact dubious.

The word 'Mai' translates to 'never' and other negations in Italian. In Khmer, 'Mai' or 'May' translates to 'to suspect of something' as a verb and 'May' (the month) aside from 'sun' and 'fire' as a noun. Regardless of exact meaning to the term, she has not diverted from the nominative overall.

The difference in scale between herself and most other individuals is significant, as is the lack of visual capacity. Both aspects may account for earlier unease when neared too closely by someone unfamiliar or untrusted.

Has bitten other persons if threatened significantly, which has resulted in at least one hospital visit, or more frequently not-hospital visits due to inapplicability either by lack of records or belief connected to those bitten.

With gained familiarity of the surroundings and related aspects, relevant occurrences have vastly lessened.

Often spins her own clothing using the silk she generates and purchases dyes in order to stain the fabric different colours.

With the excess that causes, she often passes along articles to other persons and may even sell relevant cloth through a second or third party. This allows for a degree of earnings, which is mostly kept by herself or distributed to others for further amenities.

Patterns are hand-drawn on shirts, blankets, and other material made or obtained. Fake logos and abstractions are frequent.

May sit partially out of sight on an otherwise inaccessible surface with an easel and pastel sticks during the day hours.

Typically rushes with her handwriting, but sometimes attempts a less hurried print. Rushing is her normal direction, but when focused she can be very precise. In terms of design, she can craft very elaborate patterns without much in the way of error.

Sewing and knitting are a frequent pastime, the silk she spins often made into yarn of a sort.

Has numerous yarn balls, some dyed, stored in her housing, the location which is unknown to most.

Lives on the second story of a building somewhere and often watches the scenery from a nondescript balcony while she works.

To that same degree, sometimes leaves down the wall of the building so that she does not have to contend with locking the door.

Appears to be small by choice, as anything more in scale would be detrimental in her view. In comparison to other jorōgumo, how far her scale extends is uncertain.

May or may not be fireproof to some degree. Has not shown weakness to sunlight, although that may be something indirect or utilised.

Lived somewhat longer than the timeframe her prior caretaker expected, which was for a reason evidently. Originally came from an individual who originated from Cambodia; something recalled from the duration as a spider.

As her earlier caretaker was local, she has lived most of her life around Verona. Her outgoing personality is more recent, but has not been dulled by changes in environment.

Sometimes makes chocolate or almond bark covered insects, using various ingredients and dried varieties for that purpose. Sometimes people she offers this to decline, which does not faze her by far.

Has a high metabolism. Does not overlook the benefit to her physiology defensively when significantly threatened.

Likes to hoard candy despite not often eating it. The labels are typically viewed as aesthetic when relevant, and are saved by extent.

Often buries herself in blankets when tired.

Hums infrequently, more often when alone or busy.

Often overlooked by others, and prefers to stay out of focus typically. Despite this, takes responsibility into account when necessary.

Picks up items that seem to have been forgotten or discarded, taking them back to one location or another for caching.

Delivers items and makes errand runs where others are unable. Keeps a stock of inventory for that purpose, and keeps frequent contact with others within the network via text. As of most, does not entirely depend on currency, but still keeps an amount where necessary in order to purchase goods.

Activity and occurrences are more hectic beyond the relatively quiet commune due to tourism having more prevalence in other cities. Regardless, she protects and keeps awareness of her stock in order to not lose anything of importance.

Cannot easily swim. Despite this, occasionally falls into the nearby river on accident.

Picks up items that seem to have been forgotten or discarded, taking them back to one location or another for caching.

The bridges across the river are frequented when crossings are necessary. Due to occasional high traffic, she sometimes takes slight alternate routes. Only after storms or when the wind is rarely fast is this risky, but mistakes are inconsistent.

The forests of Cambodia and related territories are heavily covered by forests, in which tarantula and other species live. Individuals burrow beneath the ground and emerge to catch prey. This does not exclusively include insects.

Those who age enough assume a higher state of consciousness and seek out larger sources to mitigate the needs a larger form requires.

Herbivorous animals and other species within a given ecosystem may encompass this requirement. However, humans are also within that range of potential. It is noted that various persons have gone missing within related terrain.

The eggs that are left behind in various burrows are often mistakenly collected by persons involved in the illegal pet trade, if not caught by relevant jorōgumo, and these have presumably resulted in the homes of various breeders and collectors alike. Males do not appear to differ from their original state, which is not the same case of females.

There do not appear to be many reports of occurrences resulting from this situational pattern, which may be beneficial or convey potential loss of human life.
