'''Arachnes''' are arachnid enemies found in [[Rose Way]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They are named after {{wp|Arachne}}, a character from Greek mythology who was turned into a spider. They are some of the more powerful enemies the party encounters early in the game, though they are fought only alongside other enemies. Arachnes attack with their mandibles, and they may also use the special attack [[Venom Drool]]. However, they are weak to most magic attacks.

More powerful variants of Arachnes known as [[Spinthra]]s are found in [[Land's End]].
An '''Arachne''' is a large black and yellow arachnid with three red eyes. They resided in [[Rose Way]] during the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Arachnes are very powerful and have an enormously high defense rating (as compared to [[Mario]] and his party when they are first encountered). As such, these spiders can be a serious threat to adventurers. Despite being so strong, Arachnes never attack on their own; they always aid other monsters and are never seen outside of battle. During a confrontation, the Arachne attacks by gouging its victim with its deadly fangs. The spider monster also knows the special attack [[Venom Drool]], which allows it to poison the opponent. Although physically strong, Arachnes are quite susceptible to most magic attacks.
