### Occupation

Pro Hero

**Aome Eit**, also known as the **Spider Hero: Jorōgumo**, is a pro hero along with her companion and sister, Enko Eit.

## Appearance

Aome appears as a young woman (presumably around her 20's) with wavy blond hair, pale skin and black eyes. Aome doesn't seem to have human ears but instead, she has elf-shaped ears. She also has an "hour-glass" figure to tag along with her seductive nature and sexy personality. She also wears a dark luscious shade of red lipstick. Besides that, she has painted her nails with a purple (possibly lilac) color that can extend and increase in sharpness according to her will.

In her hero costume, Aome sports a purple mini-dress like outfit that ends in frills. She has also deliberately removed the straps of the dress to rest loosely past her shoulders. The dress only covers half of her cleavage which is probably on purpose to show that she is seductive. In addition, she wears a really long wavy ribbon which even exceeds the length of her whole body. The ribbon is tied just underneath the position of her breasts. Aome also wears shoulder-length gloves made in the style of fish-net that ends at her wrists. She wears the same design in the form of fish-net stockings but does not wear any shoes with it. Finally, she wears a choker with spiky designs to fit with the spider theme.

In her true original form, Aome takes the appearance of the golden orb-weaver spider (or the Jorō spider) by the legs, and the head and torso of a young woman.

## Abilities

**Overall Abilities**: The innate ability of Aome to change forms is by far her best-known ability, but she has many more as well. Aome is an amazing weaver and skilled with using her silk - both to create webs, and to make clothing, which is both extremely durable and highly prized for its ability to be enchanted. She's surprisingly strong relative to her slender build, capable of inhuman leaps and climbing most surfaces with ease. She has limited regenerative ability; she can lose a leg and it will grow back, given time.

The forelegs of Aome are long and hook-shaped, good for grabbing things. In an emergency, she can use these forelegs as brutal slashing weapons.

**Agility**: In combat, Aome often reacts with blinding speed and terrifying precision; in any of her three forms she is quick to sieze on opportunities and will not hesitate to subdue foes quickly. In hybrid or spider form, she can wrap a target in silk with devastating speed, and she excels at finding weak-points to exploit when in close combat.

**Dexterity**: (TBA)

**Shapeshifting**: Aome can change between her human form, a form where her legs become like the golden orb-weaver spider's, and a complete spider form.

**Longevity**: Aome cannot die of old age and can live thousands of years.

**Summoning and controlling lesser spiders**: (TBA)

**Puppeteer technique using webs**: (TBA)

**Venom capable of causing paralysis**: Aome is venomous in all three of her forms, generating a nasty venom from specialized glands that acts as a paralyzing agent. In larger doses it starts to break down tissue.

**Seduction**: (TBA)

### Quirk

**Jorōgumo (絡新婦, *Jorōgumo*)**: Aome is a Jorōgumo (lit. binding bride), a spider-yokai that can change its appearance into that of a seductive woman. Even when she is in her human form though, her reflection will show a giant spider. She can not be killed by any kind of poison, unlike her sister.

### Weaknesses

Like all Ariadne races, caffeine affects her in a fashion not unlike alcohol does to humans.

## Trivia

* The name *Jorogumo* is that of the *Nephila Clavata*, a real kind of spider. It also means "binding bride", "whore spider", and "spider prostitute".
* Her first name, Aome, comes from 青 (*ao*) meaning "blue" combined with 芽 (*me*) meaning "bud, sprout, shoot" or 女 (*me*) meaning "female, woman, wife". Eit is an Estonian surname meaning "old woman", "crone" and "hag".
