- Accurate Summary of a spider
== Overview ==
Spiders are hostile NPCs that enter the Basement via the Vents.
Along with the Vent Lady and the Rats, the Spider has a chance of spawning in the Vents. They can be repelled via Bug Spray or closing the vent. 
== Description ==
The Spider is a abnormally large, brown spider, with huge, light brown fangs, eight legs, and two soulless, black eyes. (Bad day all around for people with Arachnophobia)
==Behavior==
Spiders spawn inside the vents and come in 3 stages, just like the other vent hazards (Vent Lady and Rats). If they are seen in one of the vents, they can be easily repelled with Bug Spray. If the player(s) do not have any bug spray, spiders may be repelled by shutting the vents. 
If the spider is not evicted from the vent via one of the methods above, then the Basement (and any players in the Basement) will be attacked by an angry gang of three spiders, with the possibility to come a bigger one too. 
== Trivia ==
* Oddly enough, the spider has only two eyes, while real-life spiders (and most video game spiders) tend to have about eight eyes.
** This implies that the spider is either a horrific mutation of another species that so happens to look like a spider, the spiders have evolved to having two eyes after the bombs dropped, or that the developers did not care about minor details like the spider's eyes enough to make them totally accurate.
* Spider attacks, like most other Random Events, can still occur if no players are present in the Basement (If all players are on an Expedition). If so, the spiders will idle until a player(s) re-enter the Basement.
