Two brown recluse bites! Yuck. I've had one, and it was more than enough.
Mimic is a good choice.. It could even be a Book Mimic.. That would be fun
Mage Hand Press' Mimic Book of Mimics has a bunch of variants, including a book-sized one. Very fun.
It was the second one that pushed me over. Bit me on my back when I was sleeping. By the time I saw my mom the following afternoon (she’s a nurse), it was the size of a quarter after after lancing.
I don’t think it’s offensive to point out. I’m not sure we can accurately tell the color of her skin though, the light source being right under her face and a really intense yellow makes the white balance of the picture pretty much impossible to determine. Her hands appear to have purplish undertones, but that could also just be the coloring of the shadows.
That sounds very unlike a brown recluse to do. Envenomed spider bites are extremely rare, because it’s very metabolically costly for the spider. With the exception of a few extremely aggressive species (mostly found in Australia, go figure), spiders rarely bite humans at all, and even when they do almost never envenomate the bite, unless they’re trapped and pressed between the skin and another surface. Most injuries attributed to brown recluse bites are actually the result of a MRSA infection.
I think she has the pale grey skin common in modern-era drow, illuminated with yellow light from whatever magical thing she's doing.
