'''Venenatis''' is a large spider that resides in the [[Silk Chasm]].

According to [[Phabelle Bile]], Venenatis is the last of her kind, who were hunted to extinction by dwarves. 

A [[dwarf multicannon]] cannot be set up in the Silk Chasm; if attempted, you will receive the message: ''It doesn't seem safe to set up a cannon here.''

[[Ironman_Mode|Ironmen]] are eligible for drops from Venenatis when defeating it alongside other players.

==Strategy==
{{Main|Venenatis/Strategies}}
Venenatis attacks with [[melee]] towards any player that's adjacent to her, and either [[magic]] or [[ranged]] for any player out of her melee range. Protection prayers will fully block the attacks, however, they will have their effectiveness reduced for every [[Venenatis' Spiderling (monster)|spiderling]] alive in the chamber.

Every four attacks, Venenatis will shuffle to another position in her lair. Every two movements will cause her to alternate between ranged and magic attacks.

When a kill starts, Venenatis begins by summoning two spiderlings, who also increase her max hit along with reducing prayer effectiveness. The spiderlings will drain prayer by 1 for every hit made regardless if it damages or not, however they only have 5 health and players will deal their max hit on them regardless of gear. Venenatis can also launch a sticky web that if stood on, damages and drains prayer by 3 and run energy by 10 every few ticks. Venenatis will always alternate between the spiderlings and the sticky web after moving around twice.

If 5 or more players are in Venenatis' lair, she will move more often and perform a special attack every time she moves, as opposed to every other time.
