Rhagodessa

by Sheldon Morris

A rhagodessa is a giant spiderlike carnivore, about the size of a small horse. It has an oversized head and mandibles colored yellow, and a dark brown thorax. It has five pairs of legs; the front pair end in suckers which help the creature grasp its prey.

Rhagodessae are nocturnal carnivores, hunting only in the dark. They are normally found in caves, and can climb walls.
