Description: Bane back spiders were large arachnids native to various regions of Dathomir.

Biology and appearance
As they were arachnids, bane back spiders possessed eight legs and an armored exoskeleton. In attack, the spiders were capable of projecting their poisonous saliva at enemies. In addition, the spiders would emit a toxic acid upon dying.

History
By 14 BBY, the Nightbrothers had only recently begun efforts to domesticate the bane back spider. Without the Nightsisters' magickal antivenoms, the task occasionally proved deadly. However, if a spider was captured young and raised alongside a Nightbrother, it would bond with him and become a lasting companion.

In around 14 BBY, during Cal Kestis' mission to Dathomir, he encountered many bane back spiders that proved to be a nuisance to him.
