Patreon Shout Out:  Amanda P, You are a Jorogumo, a beautiful Japanese ghost woman who can shapeshift into lots of fire-breathing spiders or one big ladyspider, depending on your preference. You live near a beautiful waterfall, and have been known to catch unsuspecting woodsmen in your webs and drag them back to your spider lair. Rumor has it that you consume the men you trap in your webs, but we like to think you're just having a great time in a reverse harem lumberjack situation under a waterfall. No one has seen one of you in about 400 years, probably because you are having such a good time. Cheers!
