I got bit by a brown recluse when I was sleeping. They had to cut open my finger because I let it get swollen for a couple days. It first started out as a pimple, then my finger started to turn purple. I went to the hospital like a week after getting bit and they said I was like 2-3 days away from having a heart attack because it was causing the blood in my finger to clot. Still thinking about getting a spider man tattoo.

Fun fact, not everyone is reactive to it. I lived in a house with an infestation and got bit a ton and it never effected me, just regular spider bite redness.

I cast… Australian

We’re immune to spiders of 3rd level or lower
ignotum@lemmy.world 8 months ago
3rd level and up you mean?
Australians have never encountered spiders weaker than level 3, so they have no immunity to them

I thought this was a constipation spell

Probably depends what kind of casting is poured into the spider mold

Completely different from the ancient hex that causes tenacious, explosive dysentery with an inception-esque quality, “Brown Recurse”.

I can’t think of any worse use of a turn in combat.
Sure, you may kill your opponent via eventual infection and necrosis but they know this, and will be fucking pissed directly after.
I suppose for a stealth situation you could do this then just leave and wait a week

Yeah, Testicular Torsion and Mend Buttcrack are usually far more effective if your goal is to quickly incapacitate your opponent
