A crinkled, brown paper bag full of spiders. It holds over 60 at any given time, and, when emptied, regenerates to its full capacity every hour. The spiders inside do not need to be fed. If attuned, the spiders are friendly to you and your allies.
Once on your turn as an action, you can open the bag, releasing a swarm of spiders across the ground in a 15 foot cone. Any creature in that space is attacked by the spiders, taking 1d4 poison damage at the beginning of each of their turns until they use an action to shake the spiders off. If they remain in the affected cone, at the end of their turn, they will be attacked by the spiders again. When attacked by spiders, a creature is covered in them, and has disadvantage on attack rolls due to being covered in copious amounts of spiders. Once used this way, the bag will be at half its spider capacity. If used again, it will be out of spiders for the next hour.
The spiders will disperse from the affected cone after 1 minute of being released.
Alternatively, as an action or replacing one of the attacks on your turn, you can attempt to put it over a creature's head, arm, leg, or other exposed limb or appendage. Your DM decides whether or not the limb could conceivably have a bag put over it. While covered by the bag, the creature takes 2d4 poison damage at the beginning of each of its turns, and must then make a DC 11 CON saving throw or be poisoned until the end of its turn. If put over the head of the creature, the creature is considered blinded until the bag is removed. As an action, a bag-covered creature can attempt to remove the bag with a successful DC 10 DEX check, (with disadvantage if poisoned) and then must use its action next turn to shake the remaining spiders off of it, as if attacked by spiders in the first action option. Once used this way, the bag is out of spiders for the next two hours.
When attacked by the spiders, creatures with arachnophobia must make a DC 14 WIS save or be frightened of the spiders for 1 minute, able to repeat the saving throw once at the end of each of its turns. It is up to the DM to determine whether or not any afflicted creatures have arachnophobia.
