Located within the Arkanis Sector of the Outer Rim Territories, Maldo Kreis is a frozen wasteland of a planet. The outer areas of the planet are covered in deep sheets of ice with giant cracks that formed canyons. Within these canyons were ice caves formed of jagged frozen rock and sheets of ice.

The caves contained tunnel systems that could be traversed, if careful. Deep inside of these tunnels hot springs could be found, and due to the rigid temperatures, one could hardly be blamed for seeking one out for comfort. Careful though, these hot springs served as breeding ground for knobby white ice spiders.

These spiders ranged in size from handheld to as large as a starship. They are extremely territorial and fiercely protective of their eggs. These creatures are just as much of a threat as the temperatures within the cave systems, which is a major problem since you have unfortunately crash landed in this isolated, inhospitable landscape. The spiders are alerted to your presence, and they are hungry, the cold surrounding them bitter and unforgiving. Shuffling can be heard among the many caverns, the sound of an impending stampede.

Will you attempt to fix your ship, or seek refuge in one of the hot springs? Will you survive, or succumb to the ravenous arachnid horde?
