BLACK PUDDING
A black pudding resembles a heaving mound of sticky
black sludge. In dim passageways, the pudding appears
to be little more than a blot of shadow.
Flesh, wood, metal, and bone dissolve when the
pudding ebbs over them. Stone remains behind,
wiped clean.
GELATINOUS U BE
C
Gelatinous cubes scour dungeon passages in silent,
predictable patterns, leaving perfectly clean paths in
their wake. They consume living tissue while leaving
bones and other materials undissolved.
A gelatinous cube is all but transparent, making
it hard to spot until it attacks. A cube that is well
fed can be easier to spot, since its victims' bones,
coins, and other objects can be seen suspended
inside the creature.

0 C H R E jELLY
Ochre jellies are yellowish blobs that can
slide under doors and through narrow
cracks in pursuit of creatures to devour.
They have enough bestial cunning to
avoid large groups of enemies.
An ochre jelly follows at a safe distance
as it pursues its meal. Its digestive enzymes
dissolve flesh quickly but have no effect on other
substances such as bone, wood, and metal.
