Spitter Spider

Spitters are a variant of the Wolf Spider They are larger and have shorter hairs with some parts of their body colored dark red. But act as different creatures (yet they wont attack each other).

Their behavior is almost opposite to the Wolf Spiders: they stay away from close combat if possible to fire of darts (referend to as Dart maggots by one of the developers) in a burst of three, that can paralyse the slugcat for a short while. Each succesfull hit increases the speed of the paralysing effect on the target: one dart allowing slugcat to go on for about 5 seconds, two for around 3 seconds and three will near immediately make the slugcat cease motion.
