The Chitine's obscurity is cemented in that, despite being humanoids, they didn't actually get an official writeup in the Complete Book of Humanoids, despite the abundance of other races who did so;  [[aarakocra]], [[alaghi]], [[beastmen]], [[bugbear]]s, [[bullywug]]s, [[centaur]]s, [[fremlin]]s, [[firbolg]]s, [[voadkyn]], [[gnolls]], [[goblin]]s, [[hobgoblin]]s, [[kobold]]s, [[lizardfolk]], [[minotaur]]s, [[mongrelman|mongrelmen]], [[ogre]]s (pureblood, half-ogre and [[oni|ogre mage]]), [[orc]]s (pure and [[half-orc]]s), [[pixie]]s, [[satyr]]s, [[saurial]]s, [[swanmay]]s and [[Catfolk|wemics]].

If the webbing would not normally allow a save, the chitine can still avoid entanglement by passing a save vs. paralysis with a +4 bonus.
* Chitines can spin 1 foot of webbing per round. Chitine webbing can be solidified, allowing it to be used as raw materials for proficiency checks marked with an *. It also means that they can avoid taking damage from hard falls.
