He is a combination of Crawler and Breed.

Appearance

Tall, muscular, alien, and grotesque. He has peculiar patterns on his skin and multiple sets of full-black eyes.<ref>Her fourth hero was tall, muscular, with hair cropped close to the head, and a broad chin. Veins stood out in his arms and neck, and a number of little features stood out as alien, like his eyes that were black from corner to corner- and there were more than two of those eyes. Patterns stood out on his skin and gave his muscles interesting artistic shapes. If he wasn’t so alien he would be grotesque, but his strange appearance lent him enough allure she could enjoy his companionship. - Excerpt from Interlude 15.y II</ref>

Abilities and Powers

Spawner powers evidently take more from the Breed, than the Crawler, after 2 years of existence he still maintained mostly human-like form, albeit alien, with rapid regeneration and prehensible tongue.

He houses his bugs inside his body. They retrieve bits and pieces of his victims as fuel to accelerate Spawner's regeneration.<ref>Looking back, she could see the bugs climbing up Spawner’s legs and finding holes to nestle into. Holes in the thigh, in the very nice but alien buttocks, in sides, back… they brought the food in with them, to deposit it inside and feed their mother-father. The pieces helped accelerate the man’s regeneration, replacing missing skin and muscle. - Excerpt from Interlude 15.y II</ref>

It is unknown if Crawlers adaptive ability affected the bug-minions themselves.

History

While Spawner did not take part in any relevant Slaughterhouse 9000 attacks, he did participate in Gold Morning.<ref name="Speck 30.4">I found members of Bonesaw’s Slaughterhouse Nine. Clones who’d fled, or who’d been left behind, lurking in dark corners, or simply hiding. A Mannequin, two Damsels that were keeping each other company, a Night Hag-Nyx hybrid, and a Crawler-Breed hybrid. - Excerpt from Speck 30.4</ref>

Ward

At some point Spawner was turned into Teacher's thrall and added to Ingenue's harem.<ref name="15.yII">Interlude 15.y II</ref>

Post-Time Bubble Pop

During the Wardens' assault on Teacher's base Spawner guarded Ingenue against Valkyrie's Flock. Ingenue used him to teach a lesson to Black Goat.<ref name="15.yII"/>
