Frostbite spiders exist in several varieties and can be found throughout Skyrim's wilderness, as well as inside dungeons and mines. They are always aggressive and will attack almost anything on sight, with few exceptions. They will spit poisonous venom from afar during combat, which can be harvested and used on weapons after they are killed. Upon attacking, they will make a screeching or scuttling noise. They attack with their mandibles and legs when up close. Their lairs are often strewn with webs which they can use to descend upon their unwary prey from above. Some of the egg sacs located within the lairs of frostbite spiders contain spider eggs, which are an ingredient used in alchemy. Dungeons containing frostbite spiders often have webbing around their entrances. Inside, webs frequently contain the desiccated corpses of creatures and adventurers. These webs may also hide chests, urns, or passages. While some can simply be walked through, others must be cut or burned away in order to proceed. While they are usually the sole inhabitants of their residences, frostbite spiders will occasionally share an abode with vampires, falmer, or other creatures with whom they are friendly.
