*This small, scuttling horror seems to be a spider the size of a cat, but it has an eellike head on a long, sinuous neck. Its mouth is full of tiny, sharp fangs.*

These foul and dangerous pests usually are found only in the vicinity of a great old master. Sometimes adult neogi let large numbers of spawn loose on the outskirts of their community and leave them to fend for themselves. Unlike the monstrous vermin they seem to be at first glance, neogi spawn are sentient and self-aware. They are quite cunning and cooperate to bring down larger prey—or to turn on their weaker siblings if other prey is not available.
