(Please note, these are playable characters)

 

What Are They?:

Blobs:

Blobs are generally very docile creatures, they are found in hot, dry environments where they are able to thrive. They take up the color of their environment, including the temperature causing them to be shades of orange, red, and yellow. They are liquid in appearance and are not a single organism, but a large system of organisms who work together to achieve the appearance of one. There is no single brain, each individual organism works together as one.

 

Oozes:

Oozes are generally very territorial, they prefer to live in harsh environments such as tundra and polar regions. They thrive in the cold unlike their related species the Blob, but are weak in hot areas where they can not survive. They too change color based on the environment from an icy blue, a violet, and a light brown, this also depends on the environment that they live in. They too are a group of organisms living together.

 

Appearance:

Blobs:

Blobs can take many forms, more often than not they are found in a blob like form, they have the appearance of a large blob of liquid however they are able to expand their body creating tendrils and intaking air to appear larger. Because of their environment their color usually ranges from red to yellow of any shade. They are covered in an outer dry layer of skin which protects them from the intense heat, it is rough to the touch and is very thick and tough to break. Most massive ones can reach 2 meters across, however due to the generally hot environments they live in they come in sizes of about half of that, the average size being 70 centimeters.

 

Ooze:

Oozes are also in the form of a semi-liquid. They are generally found high in the mountains and can also be found frozen under ice. They are sometimes mistaken for ice or snow drifts because of their color and their shape. They range from blue to indigo and are much larger than their cousins their average size being 2 meters. They can be up to 5 meters wide at largest, however face many complications at this size (speed, food, etc.)

 

 

Special Powers:

Blobs and Oozes both have the power to regenerate themselves after being cut apart. This is due to them not being a whole body, but instead they are billions of cells working together in unison. They can take on the general shape of any creature or person, however lack the support to keep themselves upright, it is documented that some crafty ones have made mock bone structures out of sticks to do so, they are tricky creatures and despite that they are made of slime they have fooled many people into thinking they are human, they have fooled Billy Bob 5 times already.

 

Blobs:

Blobs and Oozes are relatively the same, however the most notable and only power they possess that is different is their ability to withstand heat, while being weak to the cold, freezing air of Oozes. They possess a protective outer layer that Oozes lack, allowing them to survive in harsh, desert environments.

 

Oozes:

Oozes live in the cold, harsh environments. Their body naturally creates acid to aid them in the digestion of their food, they prey off of small animals and plants that grow in their environment. The acid is strong enough to digest metal and flesh, and caution is advised when travelling in the cold alone. They lack a protective outer layer, leaving their soft, fleshy interior exposed.

 

 

Behavior:

Oozes prefer to spend their days in solitude they often keep to themselves, however it is not common for them to let someone disturb them and live to tell the tale. They make homes in the permafrost and caves in the mountains of their land, and it is not uncommon to hear of them coming into cities when winter arrives. They are very territorial creatures however lack the intelligence to recognize faces and voices, therefore making it impossible to have as a companion. They are herbivores, however they are able to survive off of meat if there are no vegetation available. They prefer the taste of Halfling flesh, and often times their burrows of sorts are filled with bones of various creatures. Once they start attacking, they will usually do so until the death and it is said that even large hunting parties have disappeared, only to be recovered as pained faces and bones buried beneath the ice, their flesh ripped from their bodies painfully

 

Blobs are not very territorial, and while Oozes lack the intelligence to recognize faces, Blobs have been know to make friends with weary travellers and caravan merchants. They are devious creatures and often times have been known to lead people to their death through the desert. They are very resilient creatures, needing little food and water to survive. What little food they need, they are able to synthesize for themselves, allowing them to survive in harsh, hot climates for years without the contact of anything.

 

How to Defeat One:

Blobs:

Blobs, although mostly water are able to survive, and thrive in very hot climates. They are resilient to heat and if one wanted to kill them, they would want to expose them to below freezing temperatures.

 

Ooze:

Oozes are susceptible to heat and fire, they often live in the snowy tundra and high in the mountains where it is not uncommon that due to their large size they are sometimes mistaken as snow drifts and while unlikely, frozen beneath the ice. To kill one, they would need to be set on fire, or lured into a hotter area.
