House Centipede.

Scutigera coleoptrata

Description:

Around a dozen pair of legs. Fast, obviously. Tough to tell front from back.

Habitat:

Around first floor houses or inside. Harmless for the most part, Infact they are a decent pest control for silverfish, roaches, ants, and I've heard scorpions, but never seen it.
