    An ancient arachnid horror that has grown to godlike proportions through centuries of consuming magical energy and souls. Her massive form consists of a writhing mass of eight armored legs supporting a bloated thorax crowned with multiple glowing eyes. The Spider Empress weaves reality-warping webs that can trap not just bodies but minds and souls, creating labyrinths of silk that exist in multiple dimensions simultaneously. She views all other creatures as prey to be slowly consumed, delighting in the psychological terror of victims who realize they cannot escape her ever-expanding web.
