"So you shall live to swing, to live now and forever, Even to the last hanging creature of your kind." — Athena to Arachne (Ovid)

Name in Japanese (translation): Kumo Kumo no Mi, Moderu: Arachne – Spider-Spider Fruit, Model: Arachne
Capabilities: This fruit basically allows the consumer to transform into the mythical creature known as Arachne, the "Queen of Spiders". In this form, she has the upper body of a woman and the lower body of a giant spider. Other transformational changes include Megan's short brown hair growing and becoming white, long, thick and pointy, reaching down to where normally her thighs would be, as can be seen in the above picture. Her irises/pupils disappear and her eyes become entirely red, and she grows an extra pair of eyes on her forehead above her eyebrows. Her vision is enhanced to the point where she is able to see clearly at night, or at least in very dim lighting. The eight-legged hind body is superhumanly strong, capable of crushing all but the most powerful opponents. The pointed ends of the legs can be used as spears to impale obstacles. It grants the consumer the following abilities.

Enhance Physical Prowess: In her Arachne form, Megan possesses strength, speed, and agility like that of a spider if it adapted to a human world, was of the same size as her and had trained as much as she did. Meaning that that the spider abilities add on top of her current abilities, making her incredibly strong, fast and agile.
Wall Crawling: She also possesses the ability to manipulate the inter-atomic binding forces of matter, allowing her to form temporary molecular bonds between her body and another object, which in turn enables her to cling to solid surfaces and scale walls simply by placing her hands or legs on them.
Spider Sense: She also has the subconscious premonition of "danger" sense known as the "spider-sense" or super-equilibrium. This means Megan is able to sense the exact direction from which danger comes. In addition, Megan can recognize sources of danger. This allows her to determine whether the danger is posed by a familiar source (such as an attack by a familiar foe) or is a new threat. This applies even if she has incomplete knowledge of the source of danger. For example, if Megan is being spied on by an unknown observer, she is able to tell if each incident involves the same, or a different observer as a previous incident. In a way, this ability slows time down and allows her processing time to adjust and act accordingly to incoming obstacles or hazards. Her spider-sense could also be used to psychologically see her surrounding environment, even when blinded or in extremely dark conditions. Megan could ascertain non-threatening information, such as detecting the concealed presence of loved ones. She also possesses this ability in her normal human form, but to lesser degree, where she can detect danger but not its properties. It becomes more like an intuition in that sense.
Silk Glands: In her Arachne form, Megan gains silk glands in various parts of her body, most notably in her wrists, in her mouth and in the six spinnerets on the underside of her spider-like abdomen, to the rear. There are at least six types of silk gland, each producing a different type of silk. Silk is mainly composed of a protein very similar to that used in insect silk. It is initially a liquid, and hardens not by exposure to air but as a result of being drawn out, which changes the internal structure of the protein. The spider silk has all the properties of actual spider silk, making it useful for uses such as such as nets to catch others, or as nests or cocoons for protection for both herself and her nakama, to suspend herself, ballooning, protecting herself (we're talking 10 times stronger than Kevlar here), and as an alternative source of food when she would be unable to eat. Being Arachne, who was known for her weaving skills, Megan's spider silk is supernaturally more powerful than all the other silks produced by the regular Kumo Kumo no Mi consumers, exemplified by how it glows a brilliant shade of silver, and she can instantaneously form various disposable equipment out of it as well to aid in her fights, such as boxing gloves, whips, web-knives, inter alia.
- Azogue: The story of Arachne goes like this: 'Arachne, for her part, created a tapestry showcasing scenes of Zeus' various infidelities: Leda with the Swan, Europa with the bull, Danaë and the golden rain shower. So exquisite was the mortal's work that the bull seemed lifelike, swimming across the tapestry with a real girl on his shoulders. Even Athena herself was forced to admit that Arachne's work was flawless.' One of the mythical properties of this devil fruit that distinguish it from the normal Kumo Kumo no Mi Zoans, the Arachne can bring 'life' to things she weaves with her webs. Figuratively speaking, of course, as 'bringing life' means that she can harden her glowing silvery webs until they become platinum, an incredibly dense silvery metal. She can thus use this to form makeshift weapons, among other things. However, this does indeed consume quite a bit of energy on her part, as she can be seen to be considerably drained after continously using this ability.
Psychic Alignment with Arthropods: Being a mythical spider and not your average arachnid, Megan, in both Arachne and normal human forms, possesses a psychic alignment with her environment, specifically a more empathic and sympathetic relationship with spiders. While connected to the varying populations of spiders, she is able to communicate with them directly or command them, as due to her mythical properties they see her as their Queen. This can allow her to use varying populations of spiders to aid her in combat. Of course, she needs to be in a place where spiders are available, such as a forest, for that to happen. She can't magically summon spiders in the middle of a frozen Winter Island.
Spider Bite: Spiders are active hunters and strongly rely on their bites to paralyze and kill their prey before consuming it. As such, like all spiders, the Queen can as well. She can rapid generate Chelicerae and then bite onto an opponent, injecting her venom into them. Though, it because it would be incredibly gross to be walking around with her Chelicerae constantly showing, even in her Arachne form, Megan only generates the organ when she comes in close enough proximity of an opponent to be able to bite them. The venom itself is nothing dangerous, it simply produces a paralytic effect upon being injected into the opponent's bloodstream, usually paralyzing the area bitten. The effect lasts for 4 posts.

Type: Mythical Zoan

Using this and replacing Megan's naga fruit. o.o
