Phlegmatic Ooze Swarm

Dozens of tiny globs of slime move on their own, acting as one being, alternately clinging to each other and separating in a riot of oozing momentum.

Maddening Slime (Ex)

Phlegmatic oozes are composed of volatile, mind-altering secretions. Any living creature that begins its turn affected by the phlegmatic oozeâs viscous ability must make a DC 14 Fortitude save or be confused for 1 round. This is a mind-affecting effect. Creatures immune to poison are immune to this effect.

Viscous (Ex)

As described in the sanguine ooze swarmâs special abilities, except the Reflex save DC is 14 and the patches are destroyed if the victim takes any amount of fire damage.

Environment any underground
Organization solitary, pair, sputum (3â6), or jelly (3â5 phlegmatic ooze swarms and 1â3 sanguine ooze swarms)
Treasure none

Swarms of the slimes linger in such contaminated areas and seek new accretions of vital solutions, like those found within the bodies of higher life forms, to fuel their erratic life cycles. Found in numerous varieties with a host of differing abilities, these weird, clinging oozes have been differentiated by likening them to the humors said to compose the bodies of living beings.

Appearing at first to be a collection of tiny blobs of viscous, translucent fluid, alchemical oozes become far more terrifying once their hungry nature becomes apparent. Each swarm is composed of several hundred palm-sized balls of ooze that all scuttle along as a single unit.
