Rhagodessa
by John Walter BilesDungeon and cave dwelling giant-spider like predators about the size of a small horse. They have sticky forelegs with which they grapple foes, who they then chew on with their mandibles. They are animal in intelligence but smart enough to know when they’re in over their head...not necessarily smart enough to avoid getting in over their head to start with, though.
