Giant Spider Generator

Patient, silent and as large as a pony, a giant spider turns a dark wood or a deep cave into a trap. By the time you see the web, you are usually standing in it.

What it is

Giant spiders hunt by waiting. They spin across paths and gaps, feel for the struggle and strike from above. Some are old enough to be cunning, and a few seem to collect things.

Where it lives

Ancient forests, deep caves, overgrown ruins and the high corners of any place nobody has entered for years.

Using it in solo play

Make the web the obstacle: every careless move is a roll. Ask the oracle whether the spider is hungry, already full or guarding eggs; each changes how it fights.

Use whatever numbers your game gives a creature like this; the roller supplies the story. Pair it with the yes/no oracle to decide how it reacts, and save anything worth remembering to your notebook.
