Spider Riders

Adventurous teen Hunter Steele follows his grandfather's directions in search of a doorway to the Inner World.

Hunter gets his first lesson in being a Spider Rider from Corona as they travel deeper into the heart of Arachna.

Hunter Steele finally arrives at Arachna Castle and quickly makes a bad impression on his fellow Spider Riders; especially the disdainful Igneous.

Hunter is quick to volunteer when the Village of Fragrant Blooms calls on the Spider Riders for help against an Invectid assault.

Corona takes Hunter to the Hill of Champions; the place where spiders and humans first fought together against the Invectid invaders.

Every child in the city is playing with a sparkling sphere but Princess Sparkle.

Prince Lumen's lackadaisical attitude and distaste for practice leave Hunter questioning his ability to lead the Spider Riders.

While on patrol, Hunter and Shadow fall into the Forest of Bewilderment, from which, legend has it, no one has ever escaped.

After weeks of non-stop battle and training, Corona and Igneous arrange for Hunter to have a day off but they can't understand why he wants to spend it sleeping.

Hunter and his fellow Spider Riders investigate sinkholes at a remote village and uncover a giant, Invectid Centipede named Celpido who is bent on destruction.

When Buguese finds the doorway to the Spirit Oracle's shrine, all that is left is to breech the energy shield.

Following up on Grasshop's tip, Hunter and the Spider Riders journey to the location of Spirit Oracle's shrine. But when they arrive, they are greeted by Beerain and her Buzz Rays.

Now that Buguese has two of the Oracle Keys, the Spider Riders find themselves too weak to defeat his powerful Battle Beetle.

Buguese has lost the first Oracle Key but Mantid is unconcerned. They will find the other Keys and then come for Hunter's.

Hunter agrees to help Corona practice dancing for Arachna's Annual Dance Party. But when he sees a silhouette of a huge spider haunting the castle halls, Corona becomes quite upset.

Corona and Hunter visit her home town in search of the Oracle Keys. But Corona's friends and relatives are more interested in making a couple of the two eligible Spider Riders.

Igneous is reunited with Slate, his oldest friend from the Arachna Knights. The pair were such a formidable team the people called them "Arachna's Claw and Fang".

While out on patrol, Hunter and Magma happen upon an ancient school. There they discover Aqune, who arrived on the school's doorsteps not knowing who she was or where she came from.

Lumen's childhood friend, Lady Noia, pays a visit to Arachna Castle and the Prince falls head over heels in love - much to the dismay of his fellow Spider Riders.

When the actors of a theatrical troupe putting on a play about the renowned hero Quake quit, the Spider Riders decide to get in on the act and help out.

The Spider Riders are so worn out from the constant skirmishes with the Invectids, Corona begins to long for a "normal" life. But that will always be denied her with the Invectids around.

When Magma decides to go on patrol to see is he can get any new information on Portia, Hunter immediately invites himself along for the trip.

After failing once again in a desperate attempt to retrieve the Oracle Key from the Spider Riders, Grasshop finds himself demoted and losing face in the eyes of his family and fellow Invectids.

After finding out the Invectids have invaded Nuuma, Hunter is determined to come to the country's rescue.

When Hunter loses his Oracle Key to Aqune, it seems like the Spider Riders are finally beaten.

Stags' forces have overrun the city of Nuuma. But just when it looks like the fourth Oracle Key is within his grasp, the Oracle creates a force field around the Castle and levitates it into the sky.

The Spider Riders arrive in the port town of Fuushyu in order to find a boat.

When the Spider Riders set out on their voyage, Hunter finds them ill prepared. Their quarters are disorganized, the food is terrible and seasickness and laziness are rampant.

While lost in a dense fog, the Spider Riders stumble upon to what appears to be a Ghost Ship piloted by the legendary Lost Mariner.

When Hunter, Corona, Magma and their spiders regain consciousness, they find themselves deep in a forest.

When a mysterious, old man claims to be the hero Quake, Magma is beside himself with joy at meeting his childhood hero.

Lumen and Igneous have trouble trusting Grasshop when they discover him traveling to Nuuma with Princess Sparkle.

As the Spider Riders continue their journey across the desert, Hunter is still plagued by dreams and doubts about becoming a Champion.

The Spider Riders interrogate Grasshop, hoping to find out the Invectids' plans for the Oracle Keys.

The Spider Riders finally arrive in Nuuma only to find the city completely under Invectid control.

Even with Stags and his forces invading Nuuma Castle, Queen Illuma commands the Spider Riders to flee.

All seems lost when a fierce battle with Stags leaves Hunter buried under a pile of rubble.

Hunter and Shadow face off against Buguese's newest weapon; Battle Beetle. When they destroy a piece of its armor, the Beetle regenerates, making itself virtually indestructible.

With Nuuma Castle safely on the ground again, Queen Illuma thanks the Spider Riders for their help and reveals an astounding secret; Aqune has visited Nuuma before, as a Handmaid in training.

Slate and the exhausted Arachna guardsmen fight to defend Arachna against Invectid forces but the only the timely arrival of the Spider Riders turns the tide.

Mantid shows off his newly gained Oracle power by lighting the Invectid city for the first time in years. A rousing speech rallies his minions to renew their assaults on Arachna.

Beerain has become a fugitive since discovering Mantid's plans to destroy the Inner World. After evading her former allies, she is forced to fight Aqune, who defeats her easily.

Sparkle, Hotarla and Grasshop stumble upon the wounded Beerain. After bandaging her wounds, Beerain discovers that Buguese has been sent to Darklan.

Before leaving Arachna, Beerain informs the Spider Riders that the only way to reach Invectid Headquarters is through the dreaded Labryrinth.

Hunter and Shadow regain consciousness to find themselves inMatid's Citadel. The Invectid leader reveals the darkness which hangs over his kingdom and blames it on the Spirit Oracle.

Moved by the plight of the sunless Invectids, Hunter is ready to hand the Oracle Keys over to Mantid and end the war.

Overwhelmed by the desolation of the Invectid lands, the Spider Riders debate their next move. Quake reveals the reason for his silence for so many years.

Buguese and the Spider Riders barely have time to realize Mantid betrayed them all before Mantid uses Oracle's stolen power to make himself a godlike being.

Desperate to confront Mantid before the Oracle's sun goes dark for good, the Spider Riders journey to Mantid's Citadel led by Grasshop.

Using Oracle's stolen power, Mantid createss his glowing Ark of Destiny, enticing Hunter into another futile attack. Mantid repels him easily, revealing his motivation for destroying the Inner World.

With the Spider Riders devastated, all eyes turn to Hunter as the last hope for the Inner World. But even Hunter and Shadow seem too weak to pose any threat to Mantid and his plans for revenge.
