Skittering on webs of sinew and silk that glisten with poison, bone striders haunt deep caverns. Visible by their glowing orange eyes, they take the form of a spider skeleton. To hunt, they drop down from their webs on unsuspecting prey, piercing flesh with poisoned bone. They can also shoot poisoned webs to hamper their prey, which they use to bind it helpless before eating it. Drow sometimes keep these horrors as pets and guards, placing them in webbing near choke points to snare unsuspecting adventurers. Undead Nature. A bone strider doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep. |
