A giant spider is a large or huge insect. Giant spiders live in many different environments including caves, dungeons, forests, and ruins.
Solitary
A single giant spider will usually only be encountered when it wants to be. This usually happens when someone is alone and gets trapped in the spider's web. The spider will come out of hiding, paralyze the unfortunate prisoner, and wrap them up to eat later.
The spider will usually retreat if its prey escapes and puts up much of a fight, even if the spider is more powerful. It can wait for another meal later.
Pack
A pack of giant spiders are encountered in a similar manner to a solitary spider, but will attack a group more aggressively than a single spider would. They will still wait for someone to get trapped in a web, but if that doesn't happen they will attack with web shots and poison as long as they have the advantage in numbers.
Horde
A horde of giant spiders would typically only be encountered by entering a giant spider nest. When in a nest, giant spiders will attack fiercly and relentlessly, not stopping until the threat is gone or the nest is destroyed.
Clearing a giant spider nest is no easy task. A small nest can span a hectare and contain around 20 giant spiders. A larger nest of around 4 hectares can support up to 100 giant spiders. While fire is effective, igniting a giant spider nest will send the spiders into a frenzy and could easily trap the arsonists.
