Description
To snare its prey, a giant spider spins elaborate webs or shoots sticky strands of webbing from its abdomen. The Wrap Around Spider ambushes its prey by disguising itself on trees and branches, literally wrapping around the wood and becomming indistinguishable from the foliage. Wrap around spiders are most commonly found in forests, making their lairs on between branches and trees going from the forest floor up to the top of the tree. Such lairs are often festooned with web cocoons holding past victims. Wrap Around Spiders grow to match their environment, meaning they can be tiny, all the way up to huge if the trees are large enough. This does also mean that the only ones large enough to hunt PC must be in environments of exceptionally large trees, such as a redwood forest.
