Homebrew Drider Species Details

Driders possess the upper bodies of drow, and the lower bodies of giant spiders. Their drow halves retain all of their typical physical features, Including black skin resembling polished obsidian, stark white or pale yellow hair, and very pale eyes that retain the same color shades as regular drow eyes would. The spider half of a drider is typically black and chitinous, propelling the creature along the ground atop eight wicked, spindly spider legs. Due to the space taken up by their spider halves, most driders tend to be up to 8 ft tall, and almost as wide.
