While they move like a shadow across the ground, they do not cast one themselves. \n'b'  Born of Darkness . Shadowspiders are not alive in the traditional sense. A shadowspider swarm is a creeping mass of spiders formed out of the primordial darkness of the Shadow Realm itself.\xc2\xa0They are born in the oldest and darkest regions of the Shadow Realm, often in areas where the planar barriers have grown thin. Unable to survive outside of its swarm, a shadowspider separated from its swarm evaporates in a greasy swirl of black smoke. \n'b'  Affinity with Undeath . While shadowspider swarms form in places where two planes are close, they are particularly common in regions where the Shadow Realm is coterminous with the Plane of Undeath. Because of this, shadowspider swarms are often found alongside the undead that sometimes spill forth in these regions. \n'b'  Insatiable . Shadowspider swarms are always hungry, especially for the warmth of mortals. When a shadowspider swarm senses the warmth of a living creature, it immediately moves to consume the creature.'
