Rather than being hunters, these creatures are like their common, tiny cousins in that they build webs to ensnare prey. In addition to their venomous bite, it takes 2 combat rounds to break free from their webs (+1 additional round for each point of strength below 17). In some fantasy worlds, such as those inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle Earthâ„¢, giant spiders can speak Common; in others, they are voiceless.
