There are actually several different types of Giant Spiders, and this is the most common. It is essentially just a giant version of a normal spider. It makes its webs in caves and in the eaves of large forests. Its ability to sense movement through the ground aids in catching prey.

The Giant Spider will often catch prey well in advance of its need to feed, cocooning targets and saving them for later. Also, the larger the Giant Spider, the less likely it is to be found with others of its kind. As they grow larger, they tend to grow more solitary in their habits.
