Entities & creaturesAtlach-Nacha
Atlach-Nacha is the spider-god encountered in Clark Ashton Smith’s The Seven Geases. Beneath Mount Voormithadreth, the deity constructs web bridges across a vast subterranean gulf. Its meeting with Ralibar Vooz combines menace with an almost practical impatience: a human sacrifice is less useful than an uninterrupted work schedule and a test of a newly finished crossing.
