New Oe/BX/1E Monster: Bone Tarantula

DESCRIPTION

Bone tarantulas are giant spiders covered in blue-black fuzz and they literally crackle with electricity. Bone tarantulas not only generate a great amount of electricity but also spin webs that are extremely conductive. Any creature making direct contact with a bone tarantula or direct contact with a bone tarantula’s web while it is occupied by (or in contact with) a bone tarantula will take 1-4 points of damage for every round the creature remains in contact with the electricity’s source. Should more than one bone tarantula be present in a web at the same time, the amount of electricity conducted by the web is 1-4 points for each of the bone tarantulas in contact with the web. The bite of a bone tarantula is not venomous, but does inject electricity directly into the victim, doing 2-8 points of damage.

Bone tarantulas are most often found in cold, dry climates, move twice as fast in web as out, and have infravision to 120’.
