Scientific name for rain spider:Description: Palystes castaneus

If it was a rain spider, its skin would look velvety. Was its skin of that texture?
Jacob Gorneau
Did you get to see how many eyes were there? Brown recluses have six eyes instead of eight. Did it have a strange pattern on its back? If it did, this justifies my thoughts of a brown recluse, for Rey have a violin a pattern on their back.
