Arachnichimps are a species from the planet Aranhaschimmia.
Their evolved counterparts are Evolved Arachnichimps.
Appearance
Arachnichimps are blue colored, monkey-like aliens with four arms, four or six eyes, and two legs. They also have three fingers on each hand and three toes on each foot, blue fur over a dark blue center, and a tail with a stripe design.
The eyes of an Arachnichimp with four eyes are yellow with black pupils while the eyes of Arachnichimps with six pupils are pure black.
Like humans, Arachnichimps can have different styles of head hair.
Infant Arachnichimps have larger lower eyes.
Reproduction
Though it is unknown how, Arachnichimps can have children, as seen with Haplor and his baby.
Powers and Abilities
Arachnichimps have the ability to expel webbing from their tail, which were once stated to be as strong as steel. Their webbing is very sticky, meaning they can use it to trap opponents or blind them by shooting webbing in their face. Arachnichimps can also shape their webs into slings, or to swing across vast distances.[1][2]
Arachnichimps are highly skilled in hand-to-hand combat.
Arachnichimps can use their sticky fur to cling to and scale vertical surfaces.
Arachnichimps have superhuman strength, enough to swing a lamp post like a bat.[3]
Arachnichimps have enhanced agility.
Arachnichimps are very durable considering their size, enough to survive seemingly unharmed several large pieces of concrete fall on them.[4][5]
Due to their extra limbs and prehensile tails, Arachnichimps have extraordinary dexterity, which gives them an advantage in close-quarters, hand-to-hand combat.[6]
Arachnichimps have hearing superior to a human's, as Simian could hear Gwen and Kevin talking about him from across a room.[7]
Weaknesses
Arachnichimps can get tangled in their own webs.[8][9] Furthermore, enemies can easily use their webs to their advantage.[10]
Their webs can be frozen and made brittle by the ice breath of a Polar Manzardill.[11] They can also be melted by the energy generated by a Crystalsapien.[12]
Arachnichimps' webs can be torn apart by species with as much or more strength than a Cerebrocrustacean.[4]
Arachnichimps are vulnerable to being blown away by a Geochelone Aerio's tornadoes, as shown when Spidermonkey was fighting Ultimate Kevin.[3]
Arachnichimps are vulnerable to their natural predator, the Root Shark.
Arachnichimps can be rendered unconscious if hit by a quill from a member of Argit's species, as demonstrated with Simian.[13]
