Special Abilities

Acid (Ex) A gum drop’s acid does not harm metal or stone.

Engulf (Ex) Although it moves slowly, a gum drop can simply engulf Medium or smaller creatures in its path as a standard action. It cannot make a slam attack during a round in which it engulfs. The gum drop merely has to move over the opponents, affecting as many as it can cover. Opponents can make attacks of opportunity against the cube, but if they do so they are not entitled to a saving throw. Those who do not attempt attacks of opportunity can attempt a DC 14 Reflex save to avoid being engulfed—on a success, they are pushed back or aside (opponent’s choice) as the cube moves forward. Engulfed creatures are subject to the cube’s paralysis and acid, gain the pinned condition, are in danger of suffocating, and are trapped within its body until they are no longer pinned. The save DC is Strength-based.

Paralysis (Ex) A gum drop secretes an anesthetizing slime. A target hit by a cube’s melee or engulf attack must succeed on a DC 20 Fortitude save or be paralyzed for 3d6 rounds. The cube can automatically engulf a paralyzed opponent. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Partially Transparent (Ex) A DC 10 Perception check is required to notice a motionless gumdrop. Any creature that fails to notice a gumdrop and walks into it is automatically engulfed.

Gumdrops are generally 5 feet to a side and weigh upward of 2,000 pounds. In locations with plentiful sources of food, gum drops can exist for hundreds of years, if not thousands. However, if denied organic material for more than 6 months, a gum drop begins shrinking. Eventually this stresses its walls and the creature leaks rapidly evaporating slimy liquid until its body collapses and disappears completely.
