Mindmoppet
Mindmoppets are the result of laboratory experimentation that sought to harness telepathic energy within a liquid alchemical concoction. Mindmoppets feed on the latent telepathic energy of creatures. Even those with no apparent gift but with an active mind can sustain a mindmoppet for days. Such feeding is not invasive, and mindmoppets continually “graze” even while inactive.Mindmoppets are willing servants to anyone who concerns themselves with strenuous mental exercise. Their creator is usually an obvious first choice, and they serve them dutifully. However, they have only an academic understanding of good and evil, of ethics, or mortal limitations. They see service to their master's science as the ultimate standard by which they judge their actions or those of others. This can lead to conflict between them and their creator, especially if the master appears lax in their efforts to further their studies. To a mindmoppet, continuous learning is imperative.
Mindmoppets appear to have some ability to see a short distance into the future, though this might only be that their innate interest for thought and cognition gives them a knack for anticipating the actions of others.

Prognosticate When the mindmoppet uses a reaction, it can Step before or after taking the reaction.Synapse Glow (aura, light) 5 feet. The firing of the mindmoppet's synapses create dim light. The range increases to 10 feet if its shell is destroyed.Shell The mindmoppet believes its shell is an important part of itself. Breaking the mindmoppet's shell (AC 25, Hardness 1, HP 6, BT 3) causes it to become fascinated with its shell. This condition ends when its shell is repaired.Redirect Attack [reaction] (mental) Trigger The mindmoppet is targeted by a melee or ranged Strike; Effect The mindmoppet attempts a Dexterity saving throw, using the attack roll as the DC for the check. On a success, it redirects the attack at another target within the attacker's range. On a failure, the attack resolves as normal.

Anticipate [one-action] The mindmoppet attempts to anticipate its opponent's actions. Until the end of its next turn, the mindmoppet gains one reaction.
Scavenged Shell
Being amorphous, mindmoppets are resilient, but they still cling to their shells for protection. You can represent a shell of different material by replacing the Hardness, Hit Points, and Broken Threshold of the porcelain shell listed here with those listed in the Materials section listed here.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.
