Things can always be worst. I try not to think on that too much or my characters would just find a hole and curl up for the rest of their short lives. ;)<br/><br/>I was not thinking wasp mainly because anything large enough to take down the spider would have to be giant... and those are too large for these tunnels. Talking about a 7 or 8 foot wingspan and as large as a pony... also big enough to eat the whole party with room for dessert.<br/><br/>The only thing I'm fairly certain about in games is that if I'm expecting it, it's not going to happen and giving GOD (GM On DUty) ideas.<br/><br/>That reminds me of the story of my first character in my first capaign. I was the new kid... well, teenager, in a group of more skilled players. The party was fighting a group of goblins in a tower... up hill on a stairway that ran around the inner wall. Our wizard decided that a fireball would help out a lot and lobbed one over our heads and up the spiraling staircase. It hit a wall about 10' ahead of the lead fighter (me, of course) and, on the plus side, killed the goblins. It also killed 3 out of 5 characters and blew a hole in the tower wall. The 2 surviving characters (including the wizard) died in the tower's collapse... So, I have a little bit of a peevish attitude toward anyone who wants to use fireballs indoors. Burning hands and other fire effect spells are fine, but I get worried at the mention of the word fireball. lol<br/><br/>I've had lots of interesting experiences, but until I tried 3.5 for the first time, I had managed to keep character deaths to just 2 in 25 years. In 6 months, I lost 8 characters to The World's Largest Dungeon. It soured me on 3.5 for a long time.
