Keen Smell. The thylvestris has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on smell.

Keen Vision. The thylvestris has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight.

Spider Climb. The thylvestris can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without needing to make an ability check.

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

Web Walker. The thylvestris ignores movement restrictions caused by webbing.

Grappler. The thylvestris has advantage on athletics checks made to grapple an opponent.

Silken Embrace. A target successfully grappled by a thylvestris is almost immediately wrapped within layers of spider silk. A small creature is nearly instantaneously rendered helpless, but every size category above small requires an additional turn of uninterrupted grappling to fully restrain. A creature larger than size large is immune to this effect. When fully restrained, a creature is rendered incapacitated and restrained. A creature wrapped in this manner automatically fails any contested grapple check. At the end of each of the creature's turns, they can make a DC 15 strength saving throw to break free of the bindings, though this does not break free of a grapple. Every turn spent grappled by a thylvestris after the first turn wrapped in this way sees the DC for the save increase by +2 every turn, with a maximum of DC 21.
