A glistening purplish-black gelatinous mass the size of a large man’s torso, a dark jelly is a huge amoeboid that is harmed only by fire and blessed attacks such as holy water. Cold, lightning, or physical attacks will cause a dark jelly to fission into 1-5 smaller 2 Hit Dice jellies.

A dark jelly causes 2-12 points of damage to flesh when it attacks as it draws blood via a hideous form of osmosis. Its touch destroys organic materials in one round; when a dark jelly attacks, a successful hit will drain a point of Constitution in addition to its normal damage. Lost Constitution returns after a day of rest.

A+ on the Dark Jelly. I love this entry. If I might ask permission, may I borrow the Dark Jelly for the clean-up crew in the Dim Expanse?
