Carnivorous Blob
Carnivorous blobs are the ravenous spawn of shattered worlds far beyond the stars, born across the galaxy in inert form until they fall like meteorites onto unsuspecting worlds. These massive beings can lie dormant for years in desolate caverns or barren wastelands. When a carnivorous blob perceives living creatures nearby, it lurches to gelatinous life, seeking out and consuming every creature it can catch until it's destroyed or unable to locate food for 24 hours, at which point it returns to hibernation. Often, keeping food away from a carnivorous blob is the safest way to defeat it. The blob's ability to split into smaller oozes that often hide after a fight makes it very difficult to fully eradicate these mindless predators.Recall Knowledge - Ooze (Occultism): DC 31

Split When a carnivorous blob that has 10 or more HP is hit by an attack that would deal piercing or slashing damage, it splits into two identical oozes, each with half the original's HP. One ooze is in the same space as the original, and the other is in an adjacent, unoccupied space. If no adjacent space is unoccupied, it automatically pushes creatures and objects out of the way to fill a space (the GM decides if an object or creature is too big or heavy to push).Retaliating Strike [reaction] Trigger The carnivorous blob takes damage from any source; Effect The blob makes a pseudopod Strike against an adjacent target. If an adjacent creature dealt the triggering damage, that creature is the target of this Retaliating Strike.

Whenever a creature takes damage from this acid, it must succeed at a DC 35 Fortitude save or become drained 1 (drained 2 on a critical failure). On each subsequent failure, the drained condition value increases by 1 (or by 2 on a critical failure), to a maximum of drained 4.Constrict [one-action] 2d12 bludgeoning plus 2d6 acid, DC 35Engulf [two-actions] DC 35, 4d10 acid, Escape DC 35, Rupture 20
All Monsters in "Ooze"
Ooze
Source Monster Core pg. 256 1.1Slimes, molds, and other oozes can be found in dank dungeons and shadowed forests. While not necessarily evil, some grow to enormous sizes and have insatiable appetites.
Oozing Acid
Many oozes have acidic attacks that can quickly degrade flesh, wood, and even stronger materials. Some believe that oozes are the result of alchemical or magical experimentation run amok, while others postulate that they simply emerged from the natural processes of evolution.
Other Oozes
Many varieties of these nearly mindless predators exist throughout the world. Some are mere variants, with different colored puddings, jellies, and oozes having little to differentiate them from those presented here other than their habitats and diets.Other oozes are more specialized in their role, or are dangerously intelligent. The most storied variety of these deadly and powerful oozes is the thankfully rare blight, a creature composed of protoplasm and eyes that curses entire regions with its presence.
