半蛛人是卓尔的失败实验中不经意创造的蜘蛛状人型生物。如同人类利用木材和石材，他们用类似的方式制造丝织带webbing 。
Chitines are spiderlike humanoids inadvertently created by the drow as the result of failed experiments. They build with webbing in the same way that humans employ stone or wood.

半蛛人站立约4尺高，重约85磅。他们的四条手臂纤弱修长，并有一个额外的关节，相较于多数类人生物的手臂，半蛛人的手臂有更大的活动范围。半蛛人的面部接近人，但是他们的眼睛由复眼组成，且上颚突出于嘴部。半蛛人有着斑驳灰白色的皮肤，粘稠的黑色头发从他们的头部和背部长出，纠缠扭结在一起。
Chitines stand just under 4 feet tall and weigh about 85 pounds.Their four spindly arms are long and have an extra joint, allowing them a greater range of movement than most humanoids’ arms.Their faces are humanlike, but their eyes are faceted, and mandibles jut from their mouths. They have mottled gray skin, and stringy black hair grows in a tangle from their heads and down their backs.

半蛛人分泌了一种油脂，以防止他们被卡在他们自己的网里。他们的手掌和脚覆盖着倒钩，让他们能够在墙上攀爬、横穿过天花板。半蛛人的腹部有孔径来分泌用于纺织的粘性蛛网，他们用丝织带作为巢穴、陷阱和护甲的建筑材料。这种半蛛人的盔甲拥有+3的盔甲防御加值和-1的防具检定减值。
Chitines secrete an oil that keeps them from becoming stuck in their own webs. Their palms and feet are covered with hooks that allow them to climb up walls and across ceilings. They spin sticky webs from an aperture in their bellies and use this webbing as a construction material for homes,traps, and armor. Chitine armor grants a +3 armor bonus to AC and has a –1 armor check penalty.

半蛛人使用地底通用语。
Chitines speak Undercommon.



战斗COMBAT
半蛛人通常依靠陷阱和埋伏来帮助他们打败那些更高更强的生物，包括半蛛人憎恶的敌人卓尔和蛛化精灵drider。他们经常用一张看上去正常的蜘蛛网，以看似自然的方式环绕着所隐藏的深坑、抬网drop net（美国一种长袋网）或其它类似陷阱。半蛛人能够让他们的丝织带硬化，来制作放置在陷阱中的尖刺和锐边，这通常能对每个个体造成1d6的穿刺伤害。
Chitines typically rely on traps and ambushes to help them overcome larger and more powerful creatures, including their hated drow and drider enemies. Frequently they build a normal-looking spider web with a seemingly natural way around it concealing a pit, drop net, or similar trap. They can harden their webbing to produce spikes and edges into their traps, typically dealing 1d6 points of damage each.
半蛛人手部天生灵活，能够在一次攻击中没有惩罚的使用多达三件武器。武器、盔甲和其它物品都是由硬化的丝织带制造，如果不能定期地使用半蛛人皮肤分泌的油脂处理，则会在数月之后变质。这些物品同样易燃：直接接触火焰两轮即可点燃丝织带，而2d4轮即可焚毁一件这种材质的物品。
Chitines are naturally ambidextrous and can use as many as three weapons at once with no penalties. Weapons, adeteriorate after several monthsrmor, and other objects made from hardened webbing  if not regularly treated with the oil secreted by chitines’skin. These items are also susceptible to fire: Two rounds of contact with flame ignites the webbing, burning an item away in 2d4 rounds.
擒抱加值Grappling Bonus（特异Ex）：有时半蛛人选择抓住并捕获敌人，让他们作为蜘蛛女神罗丝的活祭品。他们的四条手臂给与其擒抱检定+4的加值，所以在擒抱中与中体型相当。
Grappling Bonus (Ex):Sometimes chitines choose to grapple opponents and capture them alive to serve as sacrifices to the spider-goddess Lolth. Their four arms grant  them a +4 bonus on grapple checks, giving them equal footing with Medium-size creatures.
难以卸武（特异Ex）：由于半蛛人手臂上长着的挂钩，所以当有人试图对他施展“卸除武器”动作时，半蛛人获得在对抗检定上获得+4的加值。
Difficult to Disarm (Ex):  Because of the hooks in a chitine’s palm, the creature gains a +4 bonus on its opposed check when a character tries to disarm it.
强光敏感(Ex):在阳光或明亮的魔法光源（诸如昼明术Daylight），半蛛人在攻击和伤害骰上受到-1的罚值。
Sensitive to Sunlight (Ex):In sunlight or bright magical light (such as a  daylight spell), chitines suffer a –1 penalty on attack and damage rolls.
专长：半蛛人的八臂罗汉Multidexterity和多重武器格斗Multiweapon Fightin专长配合半蛛人种族的天赋能力产生的效果，允许他在攻击中没有惩罚的使用手臂。

半蛛人角色CHITINE CHARACTERS

半蛛人的天赋职业是游荡者。半蛛人法师和术士从未出现过，而他们的祭祀事实上由另一个种族的成员承担——半蛛神眷，在一个单独的条目描述。
The chitines’ favored class is rogue. Chitine wizards and sorcerers are unknown, and their priests are actually members of a different race—the choldrith, described in a separate entry.

半蛛人社会CHITINE SOCIETY

半蛛人的村落位于一座蛛网迷宫的中心，其四周密布着陷阱。他们的住处是由硬化蛛丝搭建的半球形房屋，外墙上配有窗户和装饰图案。他们的房屋肆意搭建在洞穴的地面、洞壁、甚至洞顶上，并用蛛丝吊桥将这些房屋串连起来。敬献给罗丝Lolth的神殿会悬浮于洞穴的正中。半蛛神眷——作为半蛛人的祭祀——是半蛛人社区公认的领袖。
Chitine villages are located in the middle of mazes of trap-laden webbing. The hard-web dwellings resemble domed houses, complete with windows and adorned with decorative shapes. They build freely on cavern floors, walls, and ceilings, connecting the buildings with bridges of webbing. Suspended in the center of the cavern is a temple devoted to Lolth. The choldrith—the priests of the chitines—are the undisputed leaders of chitine communities.

在国度里IN THE REALMS

在上层和中层幽暗地域的北部可以找到少量半蛛人，但是他们最大的种群是由一系列村庄共同组成的亚斯科尔城（Yathchol），坐落于地狱门堡Hellgate Keep东南方的至远森林Far Forest之下。半蛛人被认为是附近的卓尔城市契德·纳撒城Ched Nasad的卓尔法师实验的废弃物，这些卓尔法师繁殖他们希望能够创造一个完美的奴隶种族。自盘旋毒牙之年Year of  the Creeping Fang(1305 DR)以后，半蛛人已经从卓尔那里获得独立并在他们自己的村庄里兴旺发达。至少七个半蛛人村庄，每个村庄容纳了40到60个半蛛人，共同组成了亚斯科尔城Yathchol。
Chitines are found in small numbers in the northern reaches of the upper and middle Underdark, but their greatest population is a cluster of villages collectively known as Yathchol, located beneath the Far Forest southeast of Hellgate Keep. The  chitines are said to be the castoff experiments of drow wizards in the nearby city of Ched Nasad, who bred them in the hopes of creating a perfect slave race. Since the Year of the Creeping Fang (1305 DR), chitines have been independent of the drow and prospered in their villages. At least seven villages, each holding 40 to 60 chitines, make up Yathchol.

卓尔与半蛛人互相仇恨，一旦进入视线就经常发动攻击。
Drow and chitines hate each other, and usually attack on sight.
