Homebrew Drider Hybrid Species Details

Driders were created from primarily drow (Or other species) in an agonizing process. They grew physically stronger and kept all magical and other abilities and skills they learned during their lives, however, they were formed then into Driders; centaur-like creatures, appearing as drow from the waist up, with their lower portions replaced by the abdomen and legs of immense spiders. They were sexless because Lolth did not want to have a race of enemies to the drow.

Driders naturally developed a venom that could sap their victims' strength and paralyze them for upwards of twenty minutes. They could deliver the venom with a bite, or they could alternatively use it as a sticky coating on their weapons. They were immune to all poisons. Driders could reliably climb like spiders, the only difference between these two species' movement abilities was the driders' inability to walk upside down on ceilings; they were too heavy for that. About half of the drider population had the ability to spin webs like spiders. They could do so up to ten times per day and these webs worked like a rope of entanglement. It was dangerous for everybody except for its creator. Their darkvision had a shorter range than that of a drow,  though their senses were sharper.
