Languages: —

Challenge: 1 (200 XP)

Spider Climb: The spider can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check.

Web Sense: While in contact with a web, the spider knows the exact location of any other creature in contact with the same web.

Web Walker: The spider ignores movement restrictions caused by webbing.

Actions

Bite: Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 7 (ld8 + 3) piercing damage, and the target must make a DC 11 Constitution saving throw, taking 9 (2d8) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If the poison damage reduces the target to 0 hit points, the target is stable but poisoned for 1 hour, even after regaining hit points, and is paralyzed while poisoned in this way.

Web: (Recharge 5-6). Ranged Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, range 30/60 ft., one creature.

Hit: The target is restrained by webbing. As an action, the restrained target can make a DC 12 Strength check, bursting the webbing on a success. The webbing can also be attacked and destroyed (AC 10; hp 5; vulnerability to fire damage; immunity to bludgeoning, poison, and psychic damage).

To snare its prey, a giant spider spins elaborate webs or shoots sticky strands of webbing from its abdomen.

Habitat: Giant spiders are most commonly found underground, making their lairs on ceilings or in dark, web-filled crevices. Such lairs are often festooned with web cocoons holding past victims.

Monstrous eight-eyed, hairy spiders capable of Common human speech. Carthorse-sized and carnivorous, they have eight legs and sharp pincers. When excited or angry, they make a distinctive clicking sound and secrete poison. They fear Basilisks.[1]

Crup

D&D Equivalent: Blink Dog

It strongly resembled a Jack Russell Terrier, except that a Crup had a forked tail. They were clearly wizard-bred dogs since they were extremely loyal to wizards, and ferocious toward Muggles. They eat almost anything. A group of Crups is known as a "pack".[4] Also they teleport at-will.

The Crup’s devotion to wizards is only surpassed by its aggression towards non-magical people.   Crups – dogs that closely resemble Jack Russells, apart from the forked tail.

Owl

Companion Owl Generator

Owls are enlisted to aid communication between wizards. Letters, parcels, and Howlers are all delivered by owls. Soft, hair-like edges on an owl's flight feathers reduce the noise of flight, coupled with their natural camouflage, making them ideal for delivering letters.[5]

Dementor

D&D Equivalent: Specter

‘“It has nothing to do with weakness,” said Professor Lupin sharply, as though he had read Harry’s mind. “The Dementors affect you worse than the others because there are horrors in your past that the others don’t have.”’ Professor Lupin in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, J.K. Rowling

‘The revelation that his batty old cat-obsessed neighbour knew what Dementors were was almost as big a shock to Harry as meeting two of them down the alleyway.’

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, J.K. Rowling

Fighting dementors is easier if you are happy and have brought chocolate with you.[6]

Rogue dementors may be a new and frequent threat, since the former Auror Kingsly Shackelbolt (now minister for magic) will them probably remove from Azkaban (where now many of Voldemort’s supporters are, again).[7]

They fear Patronuses.

‘Dragons are extremely difficult to slay, owing to the ancient magic that imbues their thick hides, which none but the most powerful spells can penetrate . . .’ Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, J.K. Rowling

D&D Dragons are intelligent beings and modern-era Potterverse dragons are simple beasts. If you’re playing in the Hogwarts founders era, you’ve got a thousand years to settle the difference. My lore excuse is: the metallics will sacrifice their lives so that chromatics lose their intelligence, language, and powers. Some metallics survived to the modern era but they’re less… shiny.
