The half spider chick is a Drider, a creature created by Lolth as a punishment that was also a faithful servant of the evil goddess. Hobbies include violent hunting of humanoids and drinking blood to survive. Overall perfect for managing a street crossing in a medieval time where there are no cars.
They are also big on slavery. Wonder when they will remove that aspect of the Drow.
A beholder is the stuff of nightmare. Unfortunately they are removing the evil from monsters, BG3 has a good mindflayer just to subvert expectations.
Now DnD always had this tent of questioning evil in villains or making deals with devils or even beholders but they were always evil, now they want the monsters to be average people, average leftists since a beholder is probably considered less of a monster then a white guy.
