Spider Climb.
The aranea can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check
Change Shape.
An aranea’s natural form is that of a medium sized monstrous spider. It can assume two other forms. The first is a unique small or medium humanoid. An aranea in its humanoid form always assumes the same appearance and traits, much as a lycanthrope would. The second form is a medium spider-humanoid hybrid. In hybrid form, an aranea looks like a medium humanoid at first glance, but a DC 14 Perception check reveals the creature’s fangs and spinnerets. The aranea can wield weapons and also wear armour in this form.

The aranea’s innate spell casting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 12)
At will: detect magic, ghost sound, silent image, ghost sound
3/day: mage armour, sleep
