rynlingSo it turns out the giant spider in the Blighttown poison swamp is actually...
...wait for it...
...a spider centaur! Her name is Chaos Witch Quelaag, and her human torso is totally naked, with her long hair modestly covering her nipples. This is much less sexy than it sounds. For all the love and attention the developers put into monsters and armor and architecture, the non-undead human character models are trash. It's kind of funny, actually, to see Resident Evil 1 style waxy-skinned mannequins amidst all the HD environmental detail.
Anyway, I defeated Quelaag with the help of Maneater Mildred, a naked lady running around the swamp with a giant meat cleaver and a burlap sack over her head. Quelaag spews lava from her spider mouth, and this killed Tulip multiple times. As you might imagine! Molten hot liquid rock did not bother Mildred, however, and she tanked that spider buck-ass naked.
Between the three of them, Tulip and Mildred and Quelaag are an entire pride flag, and I wish it were possible to advance in the game without having to kill Quelaag. Thankfully Quelaag has a cute sister who is also a spider centaur. I didn't even look at a walkthrough before pledging Tulip's life to her; that was a decision I made from my heart.
