Aura moderate transmutation; CL 11th DESCRIPTION
A bloodstone spider is activated as are all other figurines
of wondrous power. When animated, a bloodstone
spider acts in all ways like a tiny monstrous spider
under the command of its possessor. Once per
activation, the spider’s bite can affect the target with a
charm monster spell rather than with the spider’s venom. A creature charmed in this manner acts as if The owner can also animate the bloodstone spider
as a large monstrous spider under his control. In this
form, the bloodstone spider cannot use its charm monster ability, but it can create a vampiric touch effect
once during that activation instead of injecting venom
with a bite. Hit points drained by this ability are added
to the bloodstone spider’s owner if he is within 30
feet, otherwise they are added to the bloodstone spider. The item can be activated twice a week. In tiny monstrous spider form, it can remain active for a total of up to 8 hours per use. In large monstrous spider form it can remain active for up to one minute. When the allotted time has passed, or when the command word is spoken, the bloodstone spider once again becomes a tiny statuette. CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
