The Webfeast, or Da Big Webfeast, is a recurring celebration held to honor the Great Spider God.[1a]

History

Age of Sigmar

During one Webfeast when the Grimscuttle tribes of Nulahmia played host, mobs from the distant Stalktribes of Ash Skuttlerz, Bad Eggz, and Dank-Kreeperz came to attend the festivities. The celebrations were interrupted when a force of Astral Templars, led by Lord-Celestant Thonar of the Ice, arrived to expunge the Grots, hoping to remove their unpredictable antics from the Nulahmian campaigns. The visitting Grot tribes put up a desperate defence but the Grimscuttle themselves seem unwilling to join the battle, allowing the Stormcast Eternals to push deep into the inner nests of the Grimscuttle temple. This proves to be a trap, as the advancing Astral Templars fall prey to unseen traps and webbing hidden by the darkness. Once the enemy is entangled Spider Riders descend upon the Stormcasts in a brutal slaughter, which only worsens when the Grimscuttle attract a number of their Skitterstrand patrons. When the last Signarite is slain the visitting Grots declare this to be the greatest Webfeast ever, either unaware or uncaring their losses have made the Grimscuttle the most powerful Spiderfang Grots for leagues around.[1a]
