Once you have used this trait, you may not use it again until you have taken a long rest. You can also actively glean additional information you may ask the DM one question, and the DM must answer truthfully though they may couch the answer in figurative language representative of the memory's qualities. As the creature's life flashes through your mind, you learn the most important memory from their life. Your size is Medium.Īs a blob or humanoid, your base sliding/walking speed is 30ft.Īs a blob, you may consume a creature of size Medium or smaller over the course of a short rest (or an equivalent amount of time) and peer into their memories as long as they had memories. A slime naturally appears as a round-ish blob but can also take on the form of a humanoid between five to six feet tall.

While slimes can fit into various spaces, the mass of a full grown slime is similar to a human’s. The longest living slime is said to have been over 100 years old though the suggested average lifespan is close to 80 years.

Slimes physically mature rapidly, though their mental development depends a lot on the type of prey they consume and absorb memories from. Your Constitution increases by 2, and either your Dexterity or your Intelligence increases by 1. Your slime character has the following traits: What is certain, however, is that a former species of round blobs of translucent goop has become a capable and civilized race with their own quirks and abilities. How exactly the slimes learned speech and even magic remains a mystery. As a result, these slimes have achieved something their more primitive cousins - oozes - could not: intelligence and sentience. Through the never-ending engulfment of other creatures, the race of slimes not only evolved to absorb the physical nutrients of their prey but also developed the ability to consume their memories. Can take on the form of other creatures.Can absorb memories from creatures it eats.Looks like a round, transparent/translucent blob (“clear jello”).

I designed this race upon request to homebrew a slime capable of absorbing memories from other creatures.
