Arackniss closely resembles his more famous adult entertainer brother Angel Dust, more so than the rest of their family just most often hunched over. Like Angel, he has fur covering his body and similar hair style, except more unkempt tuft upon his head only kept down by the black fedora he often wears. His fur is black with accents of dark green, and his body is far more lanky and slimmer than that of his siblings or father with digigrade legs and pointed feet. He also shares the trademark four arms most of the family has but has six dark pink eyes compared to most of his family’s two or four in their default forms. Even in the afterlife, Arackniss also wears attire akin to mafia wear, wearing a sickly looking yellow button up shirt and matching pants with a dark muted green blazer to match his fedora and yellow-green web-like bow tie with a red demon eye in the middle.
He tends to hunch over, making him stand at 6’2”, but when standing straight is really 6’10” tall.
In his demon transformation, Kniss stands up straight with a third pair of arms, two extra set of eyes, elongated teeth, and wilder looking hair.
Powers:
*Retractable Third arms: In his default and full demons forms, Arackniss can summon a third pair of arms aside from his main two due to his status as a spider demon. This gives him a surprise when he needs it in sticky situations and allows him greater ability to multitask.
*Multidirectional Sight/Thermal vision: With six eyes at his disposal, Arackniss has the ability to move each side separately of one another. This affords him a way to see in multiple directions at once as opposed to just the limited range a normal individual would. Additionally, he has a secondary thermal vision that allows him to see body heat.
*Heightened Awareness: Most might think Arackniss' fur is just for show, but he has discovered it can be used for more. These hairs allow him to detect changes in the weather or disturbances in the air, giving him something of a greater awareness of his surroundings.
*Venom: Though Arackniss can't produce webbing, he does have a potent venom that enables him to paralyze targets like that of a real spider. This is quite useful as he can inject it from his teeth and tips of his fingers.

Personality: Despite his weird name and rather unassuming appearance, one shouldn't exactly call Arackniss a pushover. Compared to say Angel Dust, Arackniss is a far more serious and gloomy individual, being the type to have little care for much and prefers to keep focused on what he is doing. No non-sense and stoic, Arackniss is certainly a stark contrast to his more effeminate, high energy brother whom he often rolls his eyes at whenever seeing him in the news or hearing about his next big "showing" as it were. In fact, it could be said Arackniss is the one that has always been the more serious, focused of the three children of Henroin and his wife.
In fact, Arackniss is the most mature and grown mentally of the three siblings despite their short years apart. Compared to Angel or Molly, Arackniss is quite level headed and calm, being able to know when to hold his tongue and speak his mind. He isn't one to be overly vocal. Usually quiet, he sees it trivial to be concerned with humor, jokes, and causing mayhem, instead more concerned with survival and making a proper name for himself. This is Hell after all, and only the smart and strong survival in the afterlife. Which is perhaps what makes Kniss a rather unexpected individual. He likes to observe, think, and analyze, acting on the situation as it unfolds and being a surprisingly articulate, clever man who knows how to play the game.
Deep down however, Arackniss does have his vices. He cares for his siblings even if he doesn't admit it, secretly worried for their well being despite not being in contact, and still struggles with the pressures of being that perfect first-born. Even in Hell, Arackniss wants to prove he can handle the pressures of the family legacy and often stresses over his actions and next moves, just being quite adept at keeping his emotions generally bottled up.
History:
Arackniss didn’t exactly have the most normal or stable lifestyle growing up. He is the oldest of three children to a mafia don, being four years older that his twin younger siblings, Angel Dust and Molly, and the oldest son to Henroin. Due to this fact, Arackniss had much expectation put on his shoulders from a very young age, being expected to take over the family business once he was old enough. Due to this, Henroin was known to be a violent and demanding father, Kniss often doing what he could to take the brunt of this growing up without flinching or complaining.
As he got older, things didn’t change much, but as expected he got deeply involved in the Italian mafia branch his father ran. Drugs, weapons, exotic pets, exotic plants, whatever was counted as illegal the family dabbled in it, becoming one of the largest organized crime syndicates in Italy. Compared to his siblings, Arackniss took to the life far faster, getting involved more with business transactions, hits, dealings, and turf wars, evening becoming slightly addicted to crack in his mortal life. But, when it came to his siblings he grew rather distant as they got older, and could do little to protect his brother who seemed to face most of the abuse, especially when he revealed himself to be gay and less masculine than their father wanted.
But, even this spider had his limits. Eventually, Arackniss announced he was expanding their business to the United States, giving little warning before he was leaving just some hours later. It was here Arackniss built his own small empire, working as a don himself and hired hand. But so caught up was he in his own work he didn’t hear of the loss of his younger brother until a month or so later. Though he never responded back to the news, Arackniss felt a little empty inside, feeling he could have done more for Anthony. But just a handful of years later, Arackniss would soon follow when ambushed by an opposing mob group, shot in the streets and bleeding out before hell got to him.
Shortly thereafter, Arackniss arrived in Hell. And like most, he quickly got over the shock and began building his life in the afterlife, returning to the mafia lifestyle as a hired hand and negotiator for various crime lords and some overlords. He also discovered what happened to his brother shortly after his arrival, but has never attempted to make contact with Angel Dust due to his celebrity status and feeling his brother has finally found happiness even in a dismal place such as Hell.
Little does he know the torment his brother really faces behind closed doors.
