Giant Spider

Source: Monster Manual p. 328, Eberron: Rising from the Last War. Available in the SRD and the Basic Rules (2014)

To snare its prey, a giant 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.
