'''Arachnes''' are arachnid enemies found in [[Rose Way]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They are named after {{wp|Arachne}}, a character from Greek mythology who was turned into a spider. They are some of the more powerful enemies the party encounters early in the game, though they are fought only alongside other enemies. Arachnes attack with their mandibles, and they may also use the special attack [[Venom Drool]]. However, they are weak to most magic attacks.
 
More powerful variants of Arachnes known as [[Spinthra]]s are found in [[Land's End]].
