Editor's Notes

This creature was created by taking a Giant Spider and applying the Diamond (CR+2) template.   Additionally, this spider is assumed to be a jumping spider, hence the +8 racial bonus to Acrobatics, which is mentioned in the ecology section. 


ECOLOGY

Environment any
Organization solitary, pair, or colony (3–8)
Treasure incidental

Hunting spiders gain a +8 racial modifier on Acrobatics checks. All giant spiders have a +2 racial bonus on poison saving throw DCs.
