Biography[]

A vile and deeply clever servant of the overlord, Ariad stops at nothing to bring total darkness to the world and its people. Though her motivations are unclear, she remains a dangerous foe not to be underestimated. Ariad’s power only grows greater once she completes her transformation into a horrifying spider: Queen Ariad!

Queen Ariad appears as the main antagonist of the Labyrinth of Ruin campaign. The Queen Ariad Lieutenant Pack includes Queen Ariad's miniature and the Tangled Web plot deck, which focuses on granting bonuses to monsters with the wilderness trait.
