In well lit areas, they are significantly smaller than a human, but in total (magical) darkness they are about Ogre-sized, and in the fight against the Titan, there are other types of Spawn shown like centipede-esque crawlers that are at least Huge-sized. However, it is fairly heavily implied that these Spawn are not drawn to scale because of the danmaku/shoot em up segments in the battles, so I'm mostly guessing here. Furthermore, I'd say that the two Spawn fought as a miniboss are probably around CR 12/16, but with the major downside of being extremely fragile and vulnerable to both necrotic/radiant damage due to the fact that the Titan actually eats its Spawn to heal, and that they are vaporized by just a few light/light-emitting attacks. Considering that the aforementioned LV 17-20 party had some serious help during the fight in the form of an artifact that is literally designed to kill Titans and foreknowledge of everything that the Titan would do, along with fighting from a point where the Titan couldn't use most of its attacks or strike back effectively. Overall, I would say that the two Miniboss Spawn would be CR 16, but the Spawn could vary from CR 8 to arguably CR 24 for the biggest, nastiest varieties.</p></blockquote><p></p>
