Description


	Cave spinner
	These greenish furry cave spiders try to avoid direct combat, preferring to wait in the distance while their victim, entangled in the spinner's excreted cobweb, slowly dies from their poisonous bite.

Behavior

Cave spinners will attack the Hero/ine until the Hero/ine is poisoned, and will then run, leaving a trail of sticky webs behind themselves.
They depend on the webs to Root the Hero/ine, until their poison kills the Hero/ine.
If one poisoning isn’t enough, they will repeat the whole attack again.

Special notes

Chance to poison on hit.
Leaves a trail of webs, Rooting the Hero/ine for 5-7 turns, if s/he decides to step into a webbing without levitating.
Last enemy to give you experience before Depth 16.

Tips

Avoid stepping into its spiderweb trail.
- If Rooted by it, drink a Potion of Levitation to un-root your Hero/ine.
Slay them as fast as you can, so they don’t poison you and run.
Always have at least one potion of healing when approaching a cave spinner.
Avoid approaching the cave spinner, if you don’t have potion of healing and you’re low HP, because their poison could finish you off.
Try to zap with wands, or missile weapons, before it comes to you, to reduce chance of getting poisoned.
