Hi everybody. I finishes chapter 2 of my book thing. I need help describing things though. Like how would you describe what the sleeper looks like? I'll probably have more questions like this later. Thanks for your help

A gigantic spider with a torso like a human and a head similar to the one on the Gothic logo (I didn't had much time to get a close look on him, so I may be wrong, especially with the head, but I didn't saw any arms or hand's)

Well, it was more black than it was white.

In any case, to fit the scenario you might want to describe by comparison to what was known at that time. So you might want to say something like:

It was huge like a whale, with many legs like a crab. It had a head of a bison, with horns befitting a devil's. It had wings, silken like a bat's... etc.

I barely remember what it looks like. Some post a link to a picture of it so we can describe it in detail.

Hey all:
I may be writing my own storie from Gothic, so just wait!
It could take me awhile, as I haven't wrote an :official: book in a while.
It'll probably be based on the Four Focus stones, as thats where I am at the moment on my third game.
