Cobweb Golem
The Cobweb Golem is a magically created automaton given the semblance of life by a particularly powerful spellcaster. The Cobweb Golem appears to be spun from spiderwebs. Twigs, brambles, and other flotsam cling to its sticky surface, and small spiders can be seen scurrying about on the creature. Cobweb Golems are usually encountered in long-abandoned wizard’s laboratories or lairs where giant spiders lurk.

I was a lapsed gamer for many years. When I got back into gaming, I scoured many blogs, and saved literally hundreds of links to check out later. I’m finally making time to go thru all of these links. If you follow me on Google+, you’ve seen me share many of them. Tim Snider at the Savage Afterworld blog originally posted this back in June of 2014. I loved this so much that I needed to convert it to 5e stats.
