A large spider, s, is a type of monster that appears in EvilHack. The large spider is a small carnivorous arachnid that is capable of spinning webs, and drow heroes are capable of taming them with thrown food.

A large spider has a bite attack and a touch attack that spreads webbing, and possesses poison resistance.

Eating a large spider corpse or tin grants 120 (5%) of additional poison resistance.

Generation

Randomly generated large spiders are always created hostile. Cave spiders grow up into large spiders, which can grow up into giant spiders.

Drow heroes that are not Convicts start the game with a tame large spider.

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

Large spiders appear among the random s that are part of the first quest monster class for Tourists and make up 24175 of the monsters randomly generated on the Tourist quest. They also appear among the random s that are part of the second quest monster class for Rangers and make up 6175 of the monsters randomly generated on the Ranger quest.

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