Araknia

"This is a cardboard robot! You are putting a cardboard robot in the arena with some of the fiercest fighting machines I've seen in my entire life!"

- Jayne Middlemiss.

Araknia was a robot clad in carbon fibre and fibreglass, which "might as well be cardboard" according to the team captain. It was a large heptagonal robot designed to look like a spider because it was the only thing that the team captain could think of and make look good. Its weapon was a spinning blade almost identical to the one on its teammate Riptilion. Araknia's armour of choice allowed it to be easily dominated by Hellbent in its first round.

As well as fighting with Araknia in Series 7, the Terror-Dactyls fought in Series 6 and Extreme 2, as well as representing New Zealand in the Third World Championship, with Riptilion.

Series 7
Hellbent leaped on the attack, easily putting its axe through Araknia. It then charged and hurled Araknia over without any effort. It was left on its back, where it spun round in circles, and its top armour plate and several other pieces came off. Araknia was harrassed by Hellbent once more before being dragged aside and having its electronics set on fire over the flame pit.
