Spider Swarm[edit]
Among solitary spiders, swarms of spiders are rare. However spider hatchlings congregate into swarms for a short time before they grow old enough to survive alone. Other swarms may be ordinary adult spiders controlled by an outside influence.

Spider Swarm Tactics[edit]
Spider swarms are mindless, swarming around their foes and relying on weight of numbers to bring down their foes.
Spider Swarm Lore[edit]
A character knows the following information with a successful arachana or nature check.
- DC 10 (arachana), DC 15 (nature): Spider swarms are generally made up of hatchlings. Hatchlings are usually found in large numbers with their mothers; one of the few exceptions to the spiders' solitary behavior.
- DC 20 (arachana), DC 25 (nature): Though spiders are typically solitary, some are members of so-called "spider colonies". Such colonies cannot exist without guidance from a more intelligent being, such as an arachnomancer or demonspider. Within such colonies, hatchlings are usually found in the common retreat.
Encounter Groups[edit]
Spiders are generally solitary, but can be found with other spiders, drow, ettercaps and driders.
Level 6 Encounter (XP 1250)[edit]
- 1 Wolf Spider Adult (level 6 soldier)
- 2 Lesser Spider Swarms (level 6 brute)
- 20 Spiderlings (level 1 minion)
