Neogi

The neogi were a race of spider-like creatures that were usually accompanied by umber hulks, their large ape/beetle crossover monsters.

Description
A neogi appeared to be a small eight-legged creature, no bigger than a small child and they had a head with reflective eyes that sat upon a long eel-like neck. They fight using a psychic ability to cause pain and discomfort, but it seems to be limited to their line of sight. They are intensely cautious, choosing not to fight unless their is a significant prize of gold or other valuables.

Ecology
The neogi travel through the Sea of Night using large spider shaped ships that require magic for propulsion. They also have access to Starry Compasses, or magical devices that, when properly installed, can allow a normal seafaring craft from Toril to lift out of the water and rise into the Sea of Night.
