Homebrew Arachnoid Species Details

When a magically enhanced spider bites a pregnant woman, the baby can become cursed with spidery properties. These babies are granted sticky extra limbs to climb with great efficiency and powerful web dispensers, but at a great cost. They look hideous, and are often outcasted because of it. They have two large eyes underlined by six smaller ones, dark brown to jet black, rough skin, and those limbs can be unsettling. When they open their mouths, they can extend sharp, predator-like mandibles from the inside. Thus, they typically protect themselves above all else, leaning towards neutrality. However, they also find it hard to allow discrimination, as they are victims of it themselves, and show up in the night as protector of the monstrous races.

Arachnoid Traits

Web-Weaving Genes

Bio-magical webbing

At first Level, you can spit a web and descend sheer walls at a speed of 30 feet. Others can use this web to descend at the same speed as well.

At level 5, you can use an action spit a ball of webbing (20/40) which can either knock the enemy prone and they will be considered grappled or coat them, stunning them for a round. They must make a strength save against 8+ your proficiency bonus+ your constitution modifier. It will also dissolve in a number of turns equal to half your Constitution modifier, rounded up.

 

At level 9, you can use an action to spit a web string (30/60) and attach it to an object or a creature. You can then pull the target 20 feet towards you. If the target is an unwilling creature, you must make an athletics check against the target's athletics check with advantage. If you succeed, you can pull them 20 feet towards you. If they succeed, they sever the string. If you roll a critical success, the target is stunned for a turn.
