Abilities & Attacks

Web Sense. The spider swarm has imprecise tremorsense to detect the vibrations of creatures touching its web. Tremorsense allows a monster to feel the vibrations through a solid surface caused by movement. It is an imprecise sense with a limited range (listed in the ability). Tremorsense functions only if the monster is on the same surface as the subject, and only if the subject is moving along (or burrowing through) the surface. Swarm Mind. This monster doesn't have a single mind (typically because it's a swarm of smaller creatures), and is immune to mental effects that target only a specific number of creatures. It is still subject to mental effects that affect all creatures in an area. Spider Swarm Venom (poison). Saving Throw DC 14 Fortitude save. Maximum Duration 4 rounds. Stage 1 1 poison and Enfeebled 1 (1 round). Stage 2 1d4 poison and enfeebled 1 (1 round) Swarming Bites (1 action). Each enemy in the spider swarm's space takes 1d4 piercing damage with a DC 14 basic Reflex save. A creature that fails its save is exposed to spider swarm venom.
