|adesc1=''{{SRD5|Melee Weapon Attack}}:'' +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. ''Hit:'' 7 (1d8+3) {{srd5lc|Piercing}} damage, and the target must make a {{SRD5|DC}} 11 {{SRD5|Constitution}} {{srd5lc|Saving Throw}}, taking 9 (2d8) {{srd5lc|Poison}} damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If the poison damage reduces the target to 0 {{srd5lc|Hit Point}}s, the target is stable but {{srd5lc|Poisoned}} for 1 hour, even after regaining hit points, and is {{srd5lc|Paralyzed}} while poisoned in this way.

As an {{srd5lc|Action}}, the restrained target can make a DC 12 {{SRD5|Strength}} check, bursting the webbing on a success. The webbing can also be attacked and destroyed ({{SRD5|AC}} 10; hp 5; vulnerability to {{srd5lc|Fire}} damage; {{srd5lc|Immune|immunity}} to {{srd5lc|Bludgeoning}}, poison, and {{srd5lc|Psychic}} damage).

{{SRD5ref|y}} To snare its prey, a '''giant {{5eplc|Spider}}''' spins elaborate webs or shoots sticky strands of webbing from its abdomen. Giant spiders are most commonly found underground, making their lairs on ceilings or in dark, web-filled crevices. Such lairs are often festooned with web cocoons holding past victims.
