Spiderhat

Spiderhat is a hat that allows the player to control Spiders and Warrior Spider. However, Spider Queens will see through disguise and will attack the player regardless. The hat only lasts 1/4 of a day – degrading whether the player controls any Spiders or not.

Equipping the Spiderhat will make nearby Spiders (even those attacking the player) follow the player and fight for him, just like other followers (e.g. Pigs, Smallbirds, etc.). Approaching more Spiders will also cause them to follow, including those spawned by a Spider Queen. If the player attacks other Spiders (including current followers), only they will become aggressive and other followers will attack them.

If the Hat runs out, or the player takes it off, the follower Spiders in range will become hostile. However, a new one can be reequipped again to continue controlling.

If the player attacks a Spider Den with the hat equipped, the spiders that come out of the nest will follow the player instead of attacking. However, if the player attacks subsequent Dens after controlling the spiders in one, the spiders exiting that Den will be aggressive and the controlled spiders will continue attacking the spiders and the Den until it is destroyed. Once destroyed, the controlled spiders will also attack the aggressive spiders.

While wearing Spiderhat, Pigs (even those following the player) will see the player as an enemy and attack.

The player cannot use a Straw Roll when controlling Spiders, as the game will consider this "too dangerous".
