Slimling

Oozes are a simple and typically mindless species of monster, however when certain factors are met an ooze can metamorphosize into a Slimling. There are multiple ways that a slimling can be created, with the most common one being magically induced metamorphosis on an ooze by a powerful wizard, sorcerer or druid. The second most common way is when an ooze comes into contact with strong forces of wild magic, although this more commonly results in the oozes death. Lasty an ooze can gain sentience by devouring a creature with high intelligence or magical capabilities, such as a Mindflayer or a intellect devourer.
