Full Description
Cor-Spiders are wolf spider like creatures, about the size of large man’s hand. Unlike most wolf spiders, cor-spiders are prodigious web producers, creating webs that are several meters wide and capable of capturing good sized mammals (small deer, large goats, pigs). Cor-spiders have scared many a person who found a Cor-spider’s territory filled with webs, and were afraid they were in the area of a merkwood (that has HUGE GIANT Spiders).
Additional Information
Gathering Cor-spider silk can be a bit dangerous, as Cor-spider venom can drop a large man within a candlemark. Yet, there is a constant demand for it. Once gathered, combed, spun and woven, it creates a fine strong silk. If the fabric is woven tightly enough, it will prevent the passage of blades (though the blunt force trauma is there).

They would add to the atmosphere of a haunted house/ barn, with millions of cobby webs around.
Also the webbing can be gathered and used for other purposes (and real cultures besides the Drow have done this).
They are a color animal mostly. Something to fill in the background with a number of scary webs.
What were you looking for an insect that is dangerous to adventurers?

Nevertheless: This post can readily be used in any setting. It is good in that way, and I think I will do just that. In my next session Cor-Spiders will be a part. :)

Personaly I like this, the fear factor alone is good, and I sometimes prefer ahving stuff thats more 'real' to set the players against than the fantastic (but perhaps thats jsut my style of play)

My tu’penny-worth – love that people will be scared just coz they’re spiders, even though they’re not that dangerous (unless you try you harvest their webs of course) – definitely worth 4/5

I personally like these critter. They are not world shaking, but they are the kind of thing that will cause your players grief and actually have an active part of the ecology and economy.
