As their name suggests these demonic creatures are native to the astral plane, but they are attracted to people with psychic or empathic abilities. The spider, which is normally invisible, attaches itself to a victim and drains Wisdom at the rate of 1 point per day. The Astral Spider stays attached and draining until it's victim reaches 0 Wisdom.
Magic that can detect a curse or detect evil creatures can let you know that an Astral Spider is attached to someone or attacking.
The Astral Spider is immune to physical attacks, including magical and blessed weapons. They can only be affected by magic. A specially worded Remove Curse spell will remove an Astral Spider. A banishment or exorcism will also remove the spider and force it back into the Astral.
Astral Spiders only move in the Astral plane. The only time they are manifest in the real world when attached to a victim and then they do not move.

ReplyDeleteToo bad you just play games, it would be nice to know how to remove real ones. And no, it doesn't steal wisdom.
ReplyDeleteThats what i came here for... the hell with the video game
ReplyDeleteYou know that Astral Spiders are not real right? I made all of this up.
ReplyDeleteThe things people will believe 😆🙄
Delete@Timothy S So you think astral spiders are not real? Try again. They don't "drain" wisdom, but the hell, those are real. They hate to be seen. They can pass through very, very thin crevices, independently of their size. They can change from material to astral planes. If you don't know about that real subject, it doesn't mean those spider doesn't exist: it means that you have not experienced it. We came here from Google, searching for the real phenomenon.
ReplyDeleteInteresting idea. I'll file this beastie away for later use, Tim.
ReplyDeleteI’ve been getting psychically attacked by these astral spiders for years now. They don’t steal wisdom however they are there to distract from connecting to your soul. I’ve had 13 soul retrievals and the spiders went from gigantic black widows the size of buildings to small daddy long legs. I feel the more connected to the soul, the less they can harm u. Nonetheless I came here to see if there was anymore info I could learn from.
ReplyDeleteHi, is there anyone ,who can tell me . How can we remove astral spiders. And how they get attach to us.
ReplyDeleteAnyone learn anyhting about the removal of these things?
ReplyDeleteI have 60 yrs experience in the sequestration and incapacitating of astral spiders. Make no mistake. THEY CANNOT BE KILLED. They can only be contained. Before the Palm Springs Treaty of 1954, when Eisenhower made his pact with The Grays, Astral Spiders were widely considered myth. But only with the off world technology garnered by the unholy alliance of man and alien are we able to fully obser and incapacitate the creatures. The science isn't exact but it's the best stopgap we have for the time being. Anyway, so long as the ether kittens dont...nsbshdjdjgavaiikdkdl
