Descycle. Upon being reduced to 0 hit points, the Tufted Webspinner must make a Constitution check with a DC equal to 10 or half the damage taken, whichever is higher.

Web Sense. While in contact with a web, the Tufted Webspinner knows the exact location of any other creature in contact with the same web.

Last Breath (1 use). Upon being reduced to 0 hit points, the Tufted Webspinner can use its reaction to deny death and rise again, having its maximum hit points reduced by an amount of d10s between 1 and 13 of the Tufted Webspinner's choice, generating a necrotic explosion in a 15-foot radius around itself. Creatures in the area make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw and, on a failure, take 1d8 Necrotic damage for each d10 of life reduced from the Tufted Webspinner and become Paralyzed until the end of their next turns. On a success, the creature takes only half the damage and doesn't become Paralyzed.
