Gorgolasas are giant carnivorous spiders with very sensitive eyes and hearing. They have a speed and agility comparable to that of a human, and they will often hunt in packs to bring down larger creatures. Despite their ferociousness, when humans have tried to domesticate them, they have proven to be extremely loyal and affectionate, often attempting to cuddle and nuzzle their masters when they get the chance. Gorgolasas produce a fine silk that is both strong and light.
