Player controlled head spider is the best idea.
Doesn't make sense that the head spider is controlled by a NPC when a head spider dodging lasers and trying to avoid a cyborg, running around in vents and generally causing a ruckus (maybe not even planning to attack anyone, just scaring people for fun) would be hilarious. I can see someone doing a friendly head spider gimmick only to incite a mob.
I mean from a game-play perspective it doesn't make much sense to take control away from a player only to give it back to them in the middle of the game with whatever thing the head-spider does being their sole game-play option.
