When does Armsmaster meld into his armor and become a warforged?

Ideally never. In case you missed it, there's a Dragon out there who has him claimed for a mate.

Maybe he can become a Chosen of some forge god or something.

You do realize that warforged qualify for the half-dragon template, yes?
There's nothing preventing...that...from happening.

I'm not particularly fond of Cyborgs okay?
General Greivous gave me nightmares as a kid.
Meanwhile, the Teen Titans have the best Cyborg you could ever ask for.
Level 8 priest/esses of Lolth get tested. They fail, they get turned into a drider. Note that due to the ichors and toxins injected and the horrific changes and distortions resulting, there's no such thing as a sexy / cute / handsome drider. The humanoid torso is distorted and disfigured; male cannot be told from female.
Fun facts: 90% of all clerics of Lolth are female, but only 60% of all driders are female. So, either a vastly higher percentage of females pass the test or a higher percentage of males survive the failure. Take your pick. (Yes, Lolth is likely sexist. You gonna call her on it? Didn't think so.)

Fixed that for you. And even then, it's understating it, significantly.

It's like people forget that Lolth set up the drow in an oppressive matriarchy.

You are mixing sexist up misogynist. Sexism refers to the belief that one gender is superior to the other (fun fact, that's Bullshit either way).
Misogyny refers to believing women are inferior, but the Drow society tends towards being Misandrist.

I didn't think I needed to explicitly lay out that drow society is misandrist when pointing out that it's an oppressive matriarchy to convey why Lolth is definitely sexist, but I appreciate your attempt to explain my own point to me for the sake of anyone who didn't pick up the subtext.

Subtext is hard for people on the autism spectrum to understand, and a lot of people mix up Sexism with misogyny. I didn't realize I was preaching to the choir. Sorry.

..... You know, even though I once felt having a Wand of Wonder, or any derivatives of the same, show up would count as an epic Bad Idea, I now have a reason to want to see one in this story. Specifically because I think it would be cosmic justice if Dinah were to use one to drop a Storm Giant's Boot on Lolth. Repeatedly. Any chance we might be able to see the pleasant sight of the Spider Bitch get squished? Yes, I know such a boot will not be able to kill Lolth, but Damn that would be fun to see......
(Why yes, I DO still hate Spider Bitch with the Fury of a Thousand Exploding Suns. You can blame my one time arachnophobic DM who made her the main character of a horror/slasher campaign where she spent weeks stalking, torturing, killing, raising, and torturing us some more, mostly so said DM could portray her the way he personally viewed Spiders in general......)

I... I've lost it. Have some Raptor Kitties instead."Path to Touch Fluffy Tail."
Maxim 29: The Enemy of My Enemy is My Enemies Enemy. No More, No Less.
So Taylor (Via Queen Administrator) Accidentallied Lolth's plan? Couldn't've happened to a nicer spider goddess.
Indeed. Science has shown that while there is variation between genders' brain scans, there is greater variation within genders for brain scans..

I don't know exactly where it's at either, but I had read that one. But that's been about 2 computers ago, and while I could still use Internet Explorer without every bloody site freaking the fuck out.

I'll grant it wasn't perfect, but at least I could do what I needed and not have to worry about whether the site would WORK. The changeover was a BITCH, and I lost so many links it was NOT funny.

That depends on whether you're going by the original legend or not. Because I've read the thing, and Tamamo's actions there were genuinely ambiguous enough to suggest the possibility that she was being scapegoated as the villainess.
(Especially once you consider the insularity and xenophobic racism that have been outright cornerstones of the Japanese cultural character for more than a millennium – regardless of whether Tamamo was actually causing the Emperor's illness or not, just the act alone of being outed as nonhuman was automatically enough for everyone to condemn her.)

Factoid: while males and females as a whole hit about the same average on an IQ test, Females tend to gravitate toward a median for their gender while males have more extreme highs and lows. It's part of why you see more eccentric male geniuses (Einstein, Tesla), but why you also see far more men whose last words were "Hey Y'all, watch THIS."
