Her narrative and exposition revolve around manipulation from [[Leoric]] and [[Lazarus]] during Leoric's reign of madness. ===The Spider Queen=== From the ramblings of [[Deckard Cain]]: ::Rumor has it that [[Lazarus]] loosed a silent terror in the caves near [[Leoric's Manor]] before he died. He labored for weeks under a group of unusually large spiders, and many of his servants quietly disappeared during this time...The largest creature lead the others into the caves. None who have ventured there have returned. ===Torn Letter=== From Leoric: ::[[Chancellor Eamon]], It is of the utmost importance that we secure my manor from the traitorous rabble in [[Tristram]]. The caves to the east are too close to my land! They must be blocked—completely obstructed. I believe the archbishop Lazarus has magically bound some arachnids of late. They may serve us well... ===Torn Letter's Response=== From Chancellor Eamon: ::Royal Guard, With great pain, I must admit that our king is no longer able to separate reason from madnessDiablowiki. He orders the caverns to be filled with the archbishopnet's monstrous creations and will hear nothing else. Perhaps the legendary ancients themselves once dwelled there... but now we must desecrate their ruins.==Gallery== <gallery>File:Portrait boss spiderqueen.png|The Spider QueenFile:Queen araneae puke.jpg|Queen's special attackFile:Queen araneae loot.jpg|First time kill special loot</galleryfont> {{Monster navbox|superuniquebeasts}} [[Category:Monsters]][[Category:Superuniques]][[Category:Beasts]][[Category:Spiders]]
