Ochre Jelly Race
Overview[edit]
Ochre jellies are a dangerous variety of subterranean ooze. They are favored by the drow deity Ghaunadaur.
Ochre jellies resemble giant amoebas, consisting of a thick, golden sludge. The ooze's body is made up of yellow-orange colored acid capable of dissolving any organic material. An ochre jelly can grow to a diameter of about fifteen feet and a thickness of about six inches but can compress its body to fit into cracks as small as one inch wide. A typical specimen weighs about 5,600 pounds.
They lurk in dungeons, slowly creeping along floors, walls, and ceilings and under and through doors and cracks looking for victims. When they are found, the ochre jelly extends itself and latchs onto a victim, proceeding to constrict and engulf them. The jelly exudes pseudopods to slam and grapple foes in combat.
