A '''gargantuan spider''', {{magenta|s}}, is a type of [[monster]] that appears in [[EvilHack]]. The gargantuan spider is a [[huge]], [[oviparous]] and [[carnivorous]] [[arachnid]] that is [[strong]] and capable of spinning [[web]]s, and [[Drow (starting race)|drow]] [[hero]]es are capable of [[taming]] them with thrown [[food]].

A gargantuan spider has a [[poisonous]] bite attack and a touch attack that spreads [[webbing]], and possesses [[poison resistance]].

A gargantuan spider corpse is poisonous to [[eat]], and eating a gargantuan spider corpse or [[tin]] grants {{frac|4|25}} (16%) [[Partial intrinsic|additional poison resistance]].

==Generation==
Randomly generated gargantuan spiders are always created hostile. [[Giant spider]]s can [[grow up]] into gargantuan spiders.

Webs created at level generation may have a gargantuan spider placed atop them.

Gargantuan spiders appear among the random {{white|s}} that are part of the first [[quest]] monster class for [[Tourist]]s and make up {{frac|24|175}} of the monsters randomly generated on the [[Tourist quest]]. They also appear among the random {{white|s}} that are part of the second quest monster class for [[Ranger]]s and make up {{frac|6|175}} of the monsters randomly generated on the [[Ranger quest]].

Gargantuan spiders generated at level creation are given a random item to hide under, despite being incapable of hiding.
