Spider, Giant

Description

The size of a large dog, these monstrosities dwell deep in the jungles of sub-Saharan Africa where they lie in wait along game trails for prey. The natives in the region both fear these monsters and consider them a delicacy, roasting the spider's abdomen to render a dish not unlike crab in flavor and texture. The natives also make use of the spider's venom to coat their spear points and arrowheads.
