Age
Arachnites hatch in large batches of eggs, reaching maturity around 3 years of age. The race experiences strong sexual dimorphism, with males living to around 20 years of age, and females living to around 35.
Queen Arachnites, chosen at birth for special cultivation, can live as long as several Arachnites lifetimes, with the longest living queen dying at 176 years of age.
Alignment
Having escaped Lolth's web of lies in the ancient times, Arachnites tend towards lawful alignments. However, for those that are seduced by the False Queen, they revert back towards the chaotic alignments common among those in her fold.
Size
Sexual dimorphism causes males to be short and stocky, and females to be tall and slender. Males average at around 4 to 5 feet, and Females average about a foot taller; both average at around 150 pounds.
Queens can be identified by their distinctive size, standing even taller than other females, the tallest able to reach over 7 feet tall. They are proportionally heavier, averaging in a range of 175 to 210 pounds.

Speed
You have a walking speed of 30 ft.
Spider Climb
You have a base climbing speed of 30 ft., and you do not need to make ability checks in order to climb on extreme surfaces, such as difficult terrain, or climbing upside down. You also ignore movement restrictions caused by webbing. Additionally, while in contact with a web, you know the exact location of any other creature in contact with the same web.
Improved Sight
With numerous eyes designed to scan the environment for both predator and prey, you are able to see through any difficulty. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray. Additionally, you gain Blindsight out to 5 ft.
Natural Webbing
You have proficiency with Weaver's Tools. Additionally, you do not require access to tools or materials in order to make silk items.
You can use the spell Web a number of times per short rest equal to their Constitution modifier.
Neurotoxin
Your mandibles inject neurotoxin into the victim during a bite, which is able to paralyze weaker victims. If you hit with them, you deal piercing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier, and the target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw, taking 2d4 poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If the poison damage reduces the target to 0 hit points, the target is stable but poisoned for 1 hour, even after regaining hit points, and is paralyzed while poisoned in this way.
Creature of the Shade
Arachnite prefer to live under shady treetops, or within dark caves. You are vulnerable to fire and radiant damage.
