Umbral compendium: Avoid quotes inside quotes
The Spider Mastermind was spoken of in a demonic prophecy contained in a compendium found by the [[UAC]] in the Umbral Plains during the first Lazarus tethering operation, designation MTC 2146/351. The tome, found in the crypt of a destroyed tower of unknown construction (codenamed PL [[E2M8: Tower of Babel (Doom)|E2M8]]), spoke cryptically of the Aranea Imperatrix as being the union between the master of the fourth age of Hell and the "key holder", referred to only as being a female with no further clarification. The form of the Aranea Imperatrix is said to be carried in the mind of all demons, to be fed with the blood of those who have fallen in battle, and to be made with bones of rock, iron, steel, and sinew. The prophecy refers to the entity as a "god to rule all other gods," and promises that it will be imbued with the power of a dark priest and will banish the heretics of the Penumbral Plain.
The demon is also subtly referenced in one of the UAC Report Files on the Cyberdemon (specifically RRN0R75J). The report implies that the Spider Demon can influence the actions and decisions of any demon, stating "this act was not instinct by the Cyberdemon, but rather a suggestion of a greater intelligence governing the will of any creature demon borne - a "''''mastermind'''" ' of sorts".
