Special Abilities

Absorb All (Ex)

A protoplasmic blob can convert most forms of matter into protoplasma. Without sufficient protection, such as adamantine or heavy magics, most materials will be absorbed. Living creatures take Constitution drain each time they are slammed or constricted by the blob. Whenever the blob deals Constitution drain in this manner, it heals 10 hit points for each point of Constitution it drains. Excess hit points about its normal maximum are gained as temporary hit points. As soon as a protoplasmic blob has at least 100 temporary hits points, it loses those temporary hit points and grows a size category larger, increasing its HD by 2.

Reactive Strike (Ex)

Whenever a protoplasmic blob takes damage, it reflexively lashes out with a slam attack. This ability effectively grants the protoplasmic blob an attack of opportunity against any adjacent foe that deals it damage. These attacks of opportunity do not count against the normal limit the creature can make in a round. Attacks that deal sonic or slashing damage do not trigger a reactive strike—rather, they cause the creature to split. Whenever a protoplasmic blob takes cold damage, the creature cannot use its reactive strike ability until after it takes its next action in combat.

Treasure none

Accursed creatures of protoplasmic origin, protoplasmic blobs are highly dangerous creatures that, when not contained, can grow to consume entire worlds. Only recently discovered within the abyss, the full extent and powers of these creatures is not known.
