The fate spinner is the Necropolis creature in Might & Magic: Heroes VI. Its upgraded version is the fate weaver.

Namtarus, or Fate Spinners, are emanations of the Mother Namtaru, an avatar of the Spider Goddess, a truly divine reflection of the Death aspect of Asha.They can either assume the form of a spider-woman hybrid or that of a female humanoid with two legs and six arms.Worshipped by the Necromancers, who use their venom to sustain their ranks of Liches and Vampires, Namtarus will often be present at the founding of a Necropolis, like the queen of a hive, to fortify its foundations and nurture its growth.The Namtarus regularly counsel their devotees through whisper, rhyme, and even dream.Under their protection, the Undead comb the region for lost souls which they then recruit to swell their ranks.^OffBck

	"Spinner and Weaver, human or spider, they're one and the same. Both will sever the thread that ties you to this world." Hashima gave this warning to the armies of Eternal Empress before waging battle with the Necromancers of the Seven Cities. The Fates have the power to change form, but both are extremely deadly. The Fate Spinner can assume humanoid or arachnidan shape. Changing shapes forces a "Wait" action. Cooldown: 1 turn(s).OffBck
	Baleful Gaze
	"How amazing! It knows you’re trying to kill it before even you do." The Arch-Demon Kha-Beleth was reportedly so amazed by the Baleful Gaze of the Fate Spinner that he spent a century trying to convince one to become his succubus. The Arch-Demon claimed that they could see briefly into the future and divine the violent intentions of their enemy. "I want one of those!". Any creature attacking the Fate Spinner first is dealt 40 damage (Dark).OffBck *
	Venomous Touch
	"Kill the spiders quickly. Time is death's ally". The Venomous Touch of the Fates favors them in a prolonged conflict on the battlefield. The Naga general Maturato devoted an entire chapter in his famous epic poem of war, encouraging his students to change their traditional tactical strategies when encountering the terrible spiders in combat. Creatures attacking or being attacked by the Fate Spinner in melee are affected by a potent venom. Deals 13 damage (Earth) for 3 turns.OffBck *
