In the Forgotten Realms campaign setting of the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the Choldrith is an Aberration. They are the priests of the chitine race, worshipping and harboring the favor of their goddess Lolth.
Physical Description[]
Choldriths are more spider-like than common chitines. They have the body of a sickly, white, bloated spider, but they have the head of a sly, fiendish humanoid, and the front two of their eight limbs are arms instead of legs. Like chitines, their limbs have four joints (a normal humanoid, such as a human, has three; shoulder, elbow, wrist), allowing for more flex in movement and manipulation.
Environment[]
Choldriths dwell underground among normal chitines.
Society[]
Choldriths, as said before, are the priests of the chitines. Chitines view them as blessings from the spider goddess Lolth, whom the choldriths worship and venerate.
Misc[]
Choldriths are chaotic evil in alignment.
Choldriths were bought to Third Edition D&D in Monsters of Faerûn. They originally appeared, however, in books from earlier editions such as the Monstrous Compendium Annual 1 and the second edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting.
