Wyrd’s Itsy, Bitsy Spider Is the Monstrosity- Jorogumo
May 4, 2015 by deltagamegirl22
Hopefully no one has an aversion to spiders! This week's Malifaux Monday preview from Wyrd Miniatures, has us staring down the nose/many legs of a very creepy guy- Jorogumo.
If you've had any opportunity to peruse the testing for Book 3, then you were introduced to this monstrosity. Though not entirely sure of his motivation, by the looks of him, I think it's reasonable to say that it's nothing good!
How do you feel about spiders? Really big, nasty, creepy spiders?

Dawn, the only thing that really puts the creeps ‘up’ me is a spider! Only in the house though. Not a player, but I want to paint that. It is on my list when it’s pocket-money day.
I’m right there with ya, @unclejimmy! I HATE spiders! But you can’t deny that this guy is awesome!
Knowing wyrd it’ll be a beautiful model, but will have many fiddly parts.
I’ll probably get it anyway. Because.
… and *may* fit on its base 🙂
Because it’s what we do. lol
Like the concept. Very Drider like but… Jorogumo? Really? Hilarious if they named ‘Him’ that since in Legend Jorogumo is female without exception. It translates loosely to ‘Whore spider’ and favours entrapment to snare its victims by presenting itself as a young woman (Apparently it can shapeshift too) If I was Wyrd I would change the concept name pronto …. Or take his spear away and give him a handbag.. 😉
lol! Maybe they were trying to get away from the whole, “black widow” thing? I dunno.
Just read the finalized rules as I lost track during the BETA. Love this beast — it’s a true Demon now and will be seeing some play in my Ten Thunders Crew(s) for sure! 🙂
