Arch-Enemy: Towards Kurapika and much later Hisoka.In short, Spider shall never kill a fellow Spider, but Hisoka would be the exception to this. This could also be applied on a larger scale to Meteor City itself. Ape Shall Never Kill Ape: While they don't necessarily hold themselves as being morally superior, they place zero value on the lives of outsiders, hypocritically place value on each other's lives to varying degrees, and are forbidden to seriously attack one another.Animal-Motif Team: Membership in the group is denoted by a spider tattoo and they're often called "The Spiders" or the like when referred to.Affectionate Nickname: Shar, Fei, Bono, Uvo, Paku.This can make dealing with them somewhat frustrating for some characters, most notably Gon, who has a very strong hatred for people who have an understanding of morality, comradery and human decency despite seemingly being sociopathic savages, viewing such people as hypocrites. Affably Evil: Many of the members can be genuinely amicable and reasonable if the situation calls for it, despite otherwise being ruthless murderers.On the flipside they're Unperson inhabitants of a city-sized garbage dump, two (and later on, another two) of their members have died, their leader is Brought Down to Normal and they're at the mercy of a boy half some of the members' age.
